PART I

As used throughout this Annual Report on Form 10-K (this "Report") , unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms "we , " "us," "our," "Tivity Health , " or the "Company" refer collectively to Tivity Health, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Item 1 . Business

Overview

Tivity Health, Inc. was founded and incorporated in Delaware in 1981.  Through our three programs, SilverSneakers® senior fitness, Prime ® fitness and WholeHealth Living TM , we are focused on targeted population health for those aged 50 and older. The SilverSneakers senior fitness program is offered to members of Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, and Group Retiree plans. We also offer Prime fitness, a fitness facility access program, through commercial health plans, employers and insurance exchanges. Our national network of fitness centers delivers both SilverSneakers and Prime fitness. Our fitness networks encompass approximately 16,00 0 participating locations and more than 1,00 0 alternative locations that provide classes outside of traditional fitness centers .   We sell access to our WholeHealth Living network primarily to commercial health plans. Our WholeHealth Living network includes over 88,000 complementary, alternative, and physical medicine practitioners to serve individuals through health plans and employers who seek health services such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, chiropractic care, acupuncture, and more .

Effective July 31, 2016, we sold our total population health services ("TPHS")   business to Sharecare, Inc. ("Sharecare").  The TPHS business took a systematic approach to keeping healthy people healthy, eliminating or reducing lifestyle risks and optimizing care for persistent or chronic conditions.  The TPHS business included our partnerships with Blue Zones, LLC, and Dr. Dean Ornish (the Blue Zones Project by Healthways™ and Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease™, respectively), our joint venture with Gallup, Inc. ("Gallup"), Navvis Healthcare, LLC ("Navvis"), MeYou Health, LLC ("MeYou Health"), and our international operations.  While Navvis and MeYou Health were part of our TPHS business, they were sold separately to other buyers in November 2015 and June 2016, respectively.  Results of operations for the TPHS business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, we rebranded and changed the name of the Company from Healthways, Inc. to Tivity Health, Inc. to better align with our portfolio of fitness and health improvement programs.  The Company is headquartered at 701 Cool Springs Boulevard, Franklin, Tennessee 37067.

Customer Contracts

Our fees are generally billed per member per month ("PMPM"), upon member participation ,   or a combination of both . For PMPM fees , we generally determine our contract fees by multiplying the contractually negotiated PMPM rate by the number of members covered by our services during the month .

Our contracts with health plans generally range from three to five years.  Some of our contracts allow the customer to terminate early.

Backlog

Backlog represents the estimated average annualized revenue at target performance over the term of the contract for new contracts that have not yet started.  We do not consider backlog at December 31 to be a meaningful predictor of our future revenues as a significant portion of our new revenues come from a combination of expanding revenue from existing customers and new customers with contracts that are signed and started on a non-calendar year basis. Annualized revenue in backlog as of December 31, 2016 and 2015, excluding the TPHS business, was as follows:

Business Strategy

Beginning in October 2015, we engaged in a comprehensive review of the Company's organization, our business structure, costs, product offerings, and delivery.  As a result of this review, effective as of July 31, 2016, we sold our TPHS business to Sharecare, a digital health company helping people manage all their healthcare in one place.

In August 2016, we announced our "A-B-C" strategy designed to (A) add new members in our three existing networks - SilverSneakers, Prime fitness and WholeHealth Living, (B) build engagement among current members, and (C) collaborate with partners to add new products and services that will leverage the value of our brand.  In addition to the A-B-C strategy, we are focused on supporting the ability of our health plan customers to meet the needs of their members as well as providing a valuable service to improve the health and well-being of the consumers we serve through our networks and with our products.

We engage and support our members based on the needs and preferences of our customers.  Within our fitness networks, we have approximately 16,000 participating locations and more than 1,000 alternative locations that provide classes outside of traditional fitness centers. More than 13,000 of these participating locations within the national network deliver our proprietary SilverSneakers fitness program, and more than 10,000 of these locations offer Prime fitness. 

Segment and Major Customer Information

Excluding the TPHS business, during 2 0 16, we had one operating and reportable segment.  During 2016 , Humana , Inc. ("Humana") and United Healthcare, Inc. ("United Healthcare") each comprised more than 10%, and together comprised approximately 36%, of our revenues from continuing operations.  Our primary contract with Humana was renewed in 2015 and continues through 2020.  Our primary contract with United Healthcare continues through 2017.  No other customer accounted for 1 0 % or more of our revenues from continuing operations in 2016.  See Note 19   to Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report relating to revenues from external customers and customer concentration.

Competition

The healthcare industry is highly competitive, and the manner in which services are provided is subject to continual change. Other entities , whose financial and marketing resources may exceed our resources, may choose to initiate or expand programs in competition with our offerings.

We believe we have certain advantages over our competitors such as our proprietary class programming; the brand recognition of programs such as SilverSneakers; the depth and breadth of our fitness center network relationships; and the trusting connections with our members developed over 25 years .   However , we cannot assure you that we can compete effectively with other entities such as those noted above.

Industry Integration and Consolidation

Consolidation remains an important factor in all aspects of the healthcare industry  While we believe the size of our membership base provides us with the economies of scale to compete even in a consolidating market, we cannot assure you that we can effectively compete with companies formed as a result of industry consolidation or that we can retain existing customers if they are acquired by other entities that already have or contract for programs similar to ours or are not interested in our programs.

Governmental Regulation

Governmental regulation impacts us in a number of ways in addition to those regulatory risks presented under Item 1A. "Risk Factors" below.

Health Reform

In recent years, Congress and certain state governments have passed a large number of laws and regulations intended to result in major changes within the healthcare system. The Patient Protection and
 
5
Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010 (collectively, the "ACA"), the most prominent of these efforts, changes how healthcare services are covered , delivered , and reimbursed through , among other things, expanded health insurance coverage, reduced growth in Medicare program spending and the establishment of programs that tie reimbursement to care quality and value. However, there is substantial uncertainty regarding the ongoing effects of the ACA because of the results of the 2016 federal elections, which could result in the repeal of the ACA or significant changes to the ACA, its implementation or its interpretation. For example, President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that directs agencies to minimize "economic and regulatory burdens" of the ACA, but it is unclear how this will be implemented. It is difficult to predict whether, when or how the ACA will be changed, what alternative provisions, if any, will be enacted, the timing of implementation of any alternative provisions, and the impact of alternative provisions on providers and other healthcare industry participants .

The ACA contains provisions that have had , and will (if not revised or repealed) continue to have , an impact on our customers, including commercial health plans and Medicare Advantage programs. The ACA has decreased the number of uninsured individuals and expanded coverage through the expansion of public programs and private sector health insurance. However , the ACA also may increase costs and/or reduce the revenues of our customers or prospective customers . For example , the ACA prohibits commercial health plans from using gender , health status , family history , or occupation to set premium rates , eliminates pre - existing condition exclusions , and bans annual benefit limits . In addition , the ACA mandates minimum medical loss ratios ("MLRs") for health plans such that the percentage of health coverage premium revenue spent on healthcare medical costs and quality improvement expenses must be at least 80% for individual and small group health plans and 85% for large group coverage and Medicare Advantage plans, with policyholders receiving rebates and, in the case of Medicare Advantage plans , the U.S . Department of Health & Human Services ("HHS") receiving refunds if the actual loss ratios fall below these minimums. The ACA also reduces premium payments to Medicare Advantage plans such that the managed care per capita payments paid by HHS to Medicare Advantage plans are , on average , equal to those for traditional Medicare . While the ACA provides for bonuses to Medicare Advantage plans that achieve service benchmarks and quality ratings, overall payments to Medicare Advantage plans are significantly reduced under the ACA .

It is difficult to predict with any reasonable certainty the full impact of the ACA on the Company due to the likelihood of repeal and significant changes to the law as a result of the 2016 federal elections, and other factors such as the law's complexity, lack of implementing regulations or interpretive guidance , and remaining or new court challenges.

Other Laws

While many of the governmental and regulatory requirements affecting healthcare delivery generally do not directly apply to us, our customers must comply with a variety of regulations including those governing Medicare Advantage plans and their marketing and the licensing and reimbursement requirements of federal, state and local agencies. Certain of our services, including health service utilization management and certain claims payment functions , require licensure by state government agencies. We are subject to a variety of legal requirements in order to obtain and maintain such licenses.

Federal privacy regulations issued pursuant to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 ("HIPAA") extensively restrict the use and disclosure of individually-identifiable health information by health plans, most healthcare providers, and certain other entities (collectively , "covered entities") . Federal security regulations issued pursuant to HIPAA require covered entities to implement and maintain administrative , physical and technical safeguards to protect the confidentiality , integrity and availability of electronic individually-identifiable health information. Because we handle individually-identifiable health information on behalf of covered entities , we are considered a "business associate" and are required to comply with most aspects of the HIPAA privacy and security regulations.

Violations of HIPAA and its implementing regulations may result in criminal penalties and in civil penalties of up to $55,010 per violation for a maximum civil penalty of $1,650,300 million in a calendar year for violations of the same requirement. Beginning in 2017, these penalties will be updated annually based on changes to the consumer price index. In addition , we may be contractually or directly obligated to comply with any applicable state laws or regulations related to the confidentiality and security of confidential personal information . In the event of a data breach involving individually-identifiable health information , we are subject to contractual obligations and state and federal requirements that require us to notify our customers. These
 
6
requirements may also require us or our customers to notify affected individuals, regulatory agencies, and the media of the data breach . In addition , non-permitted uses and disclosures of unsecured individually identifiable health information are presumed to be breaches for which notice is required, unless it can be demonstrated that there is a low probability the information has been compromised.

Federal law contains various prohibitions related to false statements and false claims , some of which apply to private payors as well as federal programs. Our contracts with Medicare Advantage plans may subject us to a number of obligations, including billing and reimbursement requirements, prohibitions on fraudulent and abusive conduct and fraud and abuse training and screening obligations . Actions may be brought under the federal False Claims Act by the government as well as by private individuals , known as "whistleblowers," who are permitted to share in any settlement or judgment. Liability under the federal False Claims Act arises when an entity knowingly submits a false claim for reimbursement to the federal government . The federal False Claims Act defines the term "knowingly" broadly. There are many other potential bases for liability under the federal False Claims Act, including knowingly and improperly avoiding repayment of an overpayment received from the government and the knowing failure to report and return an overpayment within 60 days of identifying the overpayment . The submission of claims for services or items generated in violation of certain "fraud and abuse" provisions of the Social Security Act, including the anti-kickback provisions, constitutes a false or fraudulent claim under the federal False Claims Act . In some cases , whistleblowers , the federal government , and some courts have taken the position that entities that allegedly have violated other statutes , such as the federal self-referral prohibition commonly known as the Stark Law , have thereby submitted false claims under the federal False Claims Act.

From time to time, participants in the healthcare industry, including our company and our customers, may be subject to actions under the federal False Claims Act or other fraud and abuse laws, including similar state statutes , and it is not possible to predict the impact of such actions. Violations of applicable laws may result in significant civil and criminal penalties. For example, violations of the federal False Claims Act may result in penalties of three times the actual damages sustained by the government, plus mandatory civil penalties of between $10,781 and $21,563 for each separate false claim. Beginning in 2017, most federal civil penalties, including penalties under the federal False Claims Act, will be updated annually based on change to the consumer price index.

Because of the international operations previously conducted as part of our TPHS business that we sold to Sharecare in July 2016, we were subject to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the "FCPA") and similar anti-bribery laws of other countries in which we provided services prior to the sale. The FCPA and similar anti-bribery laws generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to government officials or other third parties for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or gaining any business advantage.  Failure to comply with the FCPA and similar legislation prior to the sale of our TPHS business could result in the imposition of civil or criminal fines and penalties.

Employees

As of February 28 , 2017 , we had approximately 500 employees . Our employees are not subject to any collective bargaining agreements.  We believe we have good relationships with our employees.

Item 1A . Risk Factors

In the execution of our business strategy, our operations and financial condition are subject to certain risks.  A summary of certain material risks is provided below , and you should take such risks into account in evaluating any investment decision involving the Company . This section does not describe all risks applicable to us and is intended only as a summary of certain material factors that could impact our operations in the industry in which we operate. Other sections of this Report contain additional information concerning these and other risks.

A significant percentage of our revenues is derived from health plan customers.

A significant percentage of our revenues is derived from health plan customers . The health plan industry may continue to consolidate , and we cannot assure you that we will be able to retain health plan customers , or continue to provide our products and services to such health plan customers on terms at least as favorable to us as currently provided , if they are acquired by other health plans that already participate in competing programs or are not interested in our programs . Further, consolidation among our customers , particularly our health plan customers that are part of larger healthcare enterprises, could provide these organizations with greater bargaining power , which may lead to further pressure on the prices for our products and services. In addition , a reduction in the number of covered lives enrolled with our health plan customers or in the payments we receive could adversely affect our results of operations. Our health plan customers are subject to continuing competition and reduced reimbursement rates from governmental and private sources, which could lead current or prospective customers to seek reduced fees or choose to reduce or delay the purchase of our services. Finally, health plan customers could attempt to offer services themselves that compete directly with our offerings or stop providing our offerings to their members .

Reductions in Medicare Advantage health plan reimbursement rates may negatively impact our business and results of operations.

A significant portion of our revenue is indirectly derived from the monthly premium payments paid by HHS to health plans, who are our customers, for services provided to Medicare Advantage beneficiaries.  As a result, our results of operations are, in part, dependent on government funding levels for Medicare Advantage programs. Any changes that limit or reduce Medicare Advantage reimbursement levels, such as reductions in or limitations of reimbursement amounts or rates under these programs, reductions in funding of these programs, expansion of benefits without adequate funding, elimination of coverage for certain benefits, or elimination of coverage affecting the services that we provide, could have a material adverse effect on our customers, and as a result, on our business and results of operations.

We currently derive a significant percentage of our revenues from two customers.

For the year ended December 31, 2016, Humana and United Healthcare each comprised more than 10% ,   and together comprised approximately 36%, of our revenues from continuing operations. Our primary contract with Humana was renewed in 2015 and continues through 2020. The term of our contract with United Healthcare continues through 2017. The loss or restructuring of a contract with Humana, United Healthcare or our other significant customers could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations .

Our business strategy relating to the development and introduction of new products and services exposes us to risks such as limited customer acceptance and additional expenditures that may not result in additional net revenue.

An important component of our business strategy is to focus on new products and services that enable us to provide immediate value to our customers.  Customer acceptance of these new products and services cannot be predicted with certainty , and if we fail to execute properly on this strategy or to adapt this strategy as market conditions evolve , our ability to grow revenue and our results of operations may be adversely affected.

If we fail to successfully implement our business strategy, our financial performance and our growth could be materially and adversely affected.

8
Our future financial performance and success are dependent in large part upon our ability to implement our business strategy successfully . Implementation of our strategy will require effective management of our operational , financial and human resources and will place significant demands on those resources . See Item 1 . "Business – Business Strategy" for more information regarding our business strategy. There are risks involved in pursuing our strategy, including the ability to hire or retain the personnel necessary to manage our strategy effectively.

In addition to the risks set forth above , implementation of our business strategy could be affected by a number of factors beyond our control , such as increased competition , legal developments , government regulation , general economic conditions, increased operating costs or expenses, and changes in industry trends. We may decide to alter or discontinue certain aspects of our business strategy at any time . If we are not able to implement our business strategy successfully , our long-term growth and profitability may be adversely affected . Even if we are able to implement some or all of the initiatives of our business strategy successfully , our operating results may not improve to the extent we anticipate , or at all.

Our inability to renew and/or maintain contracts with our customers could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

If our customers choose not to renew their contracts with us, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

Changes in macroeconomic conditions may adversely affect our business.

Economic difficulties and other macroeconomic conditions could reduce the demand and/or the timing of purchases for certain of our services from customers and potential customers.  Loss of a significant customer or a reduction in a customer's enrolled lives could have a material adverse effect on our business and results of operations.  In addition, changes in economic conditions could create liquidity and credit constraints . We cannot assure you that we would be able to secure additional financing if needed and , if such funds were available, that the terms and conditions would be acceptable to us.

We may experience difficulties associated with the implementation and/or integration of new businesses, services (including outsourced services) , technologies, solutions, or products.

We may face difficulties , costs , and delays in effectively implementing and/or integrating acquired businesses, services (including outsourced services), or technologies into our business.  Implementing internally-developed solutions and/or integrating newly acquired businesses, services (including outsourced services), and technologies could be time-consuming and may strain our resources. Consequently, we may not be successful in implementing and/or integrating these new businesses , services, or technologies and may not achieve anticipated revenue and cost benefits.

The performance of our business and the level of our indebtedness could prevent us from meeting the obligations under our credit agreement or the cash convertible senior notes or have an adverse effect on our future financial condition, our ability to raise additional capital, or our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry.

On June 8, 2012, we entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (as amended, the "Fifth Amended Credit Agreement"). On July 16, 2013, we completed the issuance of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of cash convertible senior notes due 2018 (the "Cash Convertible Notes"). As of December 31, 2016, our long-term debt under these arrangements, including the current portion but excluding the debt discount, was $223.5 million.

Our ability to service our indebtedness (including the debt outstanding under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement and the Cash Convertible Notes) will depend on our ability to generate cash in the future.  We cannot assure you that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from operations or that future borrowings will be available in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness or to fund other liquidity needs.

The Fifth Amended Credit Agreement contains various financial covenants, restricts the payment of dividends, and limits the amount of repurchases of our common stock.  A breach of any of these covenants could result in a default under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement in which all amounts outstanding under the Fifth
 
9
Amended Credit Agreement may become immediately due and payable and all commitments under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement to extend further credit may be terminated. In addition, a payment default, including an acceleration following an event of default, under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement or under our indenture for the Cash Convertible Notes could each trigger an event of default under the other debt instrument, which could result in the principal of and the accrued and unpaid interest on such debt becoming due and payable.

Our indebtedness could adversely affect our future financial condition or our ability to react to changes in the economy or industry by, among other things:

·
increasing our vulnerability to a downturn in general economic conditions, loss of revenue and/or profit margins in our business, or to increases in interest rates, particularly with respect to the portion of our outstanding debt that is subject to variable interest rates;
·
potentially limiting our ability to obtain additional financing or to obtain such financing on favorable terms;
·
causing us to dedicate a portion of future cash flow from operations to service or pay down our debt, which reduces the cash available for other purposes, such as operations, capital expenditures, and future business opportunities; and
·
possibly limiting our ability to adjust to changing market conditions and placing us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors who may be less leveraged.
 
The conditional cash conversion feature of the Cash Convertible Notes, if triggered, may adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition and operating results.

In the event the Cash Conversion Derivative is triggered, holders of Cash Convertible Notes will be entitled to convert the Cash Convertible Notes at any time during specified periods at their option.  Although the Cash Convertible Notes are not currently convertible, the Cash Convertible Notes will become convertible into cash during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to approximately $25.30 per share. The last reported sale price of our common stock as reported on Nasdaq on   March 1, 2017 was $28.95   per share. If one or more holders elect to convert their Cash Convertible Notes, we would be required to pay cash to settle any such conversion, which could adversely affect our liquidity. In addition, even if holders do not elect to convert their Cash Convertible Notes, we would be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify the outstanding principal of the Cash Convertible Notes that are convertible as a current rather than long-term liability, which could result in a material reduction of our net working capital and result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

The accounting for the Cash Convertible Notes and related cash convertible notes hedge transactions may result in volatility to our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

The Cash Conversion Derivative that is part of the Cash Convertible Notes is accounted for as a derivative liability pursuant to Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 470, Debt, relating to derivative instruments and hedging activities. In general, the initial valuation of the conversion option was bifurcated from the debt component of the Cash Convertible Notes and is measured at fair value each reporting period. For each financial statement period after issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes, a hedge gain (or loss) will be reported in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) to the extent the valuation of the Cash Conversion Derivative changes from the previous period. In connection with the issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes, we entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (the "Cash Convertible Notes Hedges"), which are cash-settled, recorded and carried at fair value as a derivative asset and intended to offset the gain (or loss) associated with changes to the valuation of the Cash Conversion Derivative. Although we do not expect there to be a material net impact to our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) as a result of our issuing the Cash Convertible Notes and entering into the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges, we cannot assure you these transactions will be completely offset, which may result in volatility to our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss).

We are subject to counterparty risk with respect to the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges.

The counterparties to the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges (the "Counterparties") are financial institutions
 
10
or affiliates of financial institutions , and we will be subject to the risk that these Counterparties may default or otherwise fail to perform , or may exercise certain rights to terminate their obligations, under the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges. Our exposure to the credit risk of the Counterparties will not be secured by any collateral . If one or more of the Counterparties to one or more of the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges becomes subject to insolvency proceedings, we will become an unsecured creditor in those proceedings with a claim equal to our exposure at the time under those transactions. Our exposure will depend on many factors but, generally, the increase in our exposure will be correlated to the increase in the market price of our common stock and in volatility of our common stock. In addition , upon a default or other failure to perform , or a termination of obligations by one of the Counterparties we may suffer adverse tax consequences and dilution with respect to our common stock.  We can provide no assurances as to the financial stability or viability of any of the Counterparties.

We have a significant amount of goodwill and intangible assets , the value of which could become impaired.

We have recorded significant portions of the purchase price of certain acquisitions as goodwill and/or intangible assets . At December 31 , 2016 , we had approximately $334.7 million and $29.0 million of goodwill and intangible assets, respectively . We review goodwill and intangible assets not subject to amortization for impairment on an annual basis (during the fourth quarter) or more frequently whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable.  If we determine that the carrying values of our goodwill and/or intangible assets are impaired , we may incur a non-cash charge to earnings, which could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the period in which the impairment occurs.

A failure of our information systems could adversely affect our business.

Our ability to deliver our services depends on effectively using information technology .

We rely upon our information systems for operating and monitoring all major aspects of our business. These systems and, therefore , our operations could be damaged or interrupted by natural disasters , power loss , network failure , improper operation by our employees, data privacy or security breaches, computer viruses , computer hacking , network penetration or other illegal intrusions or other unexpected events. Any disruption in the operation of our information systems, regardless of the cause, could adversely impact our operations, which may adversely affect our financial condition , results of operations and cash flows.

A cybersecurity incident could result in the loss of confidential data, give rise to remediation and other expenses, expose us to liability under HIPAA , consumer protection laws , or common law theories , subject us to litigation and federal and state governmental inquiries , damage our reputation, and otherwise be disruptive to our business.

The nature of our business involves the receipt and storage of individually identifiable health information about the participants in our programs . The secure maintenance of this confidential information is critical to our business operations . To protect our information systems from attack, damage and unauthorized use , we have implemented multiple layers of security , including technical safeguards , processes , and our people . Our defenses are monitored and routinely tested internally and by external parties. Despite these efforts, threats from malicious persons and groups, new vulnerabilities, and advanced attacks against information systems create risk of cybersecurity incidents . There can be no assurance that we will not be subject to cybersecurity incidents that bypass our security measures, result in loss of personal health information or other data subject to privacy laws or disrupt our information systems or business. As a result, cybersecurity and the continued development and enhancement of our controls, processes and practices remain a priority for us. We may be required to expend significant additional resources in our efforts to modify or enhance our protective measures against evolving threats or to investigate and remediate any cybersecurity vulnerabilities . The occurrence of a breach in security of our systems or those of our third-party vendors and other service providers could result in interruptions , delays , the loss , access , misappropriation , disclosure or corruption of data , liability under privacy, security and consumer protection laws or litigation under these or other laws, including common law theories, and subject us to federal and state governmental inquiries, any of which could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and harm our business reputation.

In order to be successful , we must attract , engage , retain and integrate key employees and have adequate succession plans in place , and failure to do so could have an adverse effect on our ability to
 
11
manage our business.

Our success depends, in large part, on our ability to attract, engage , retain and integrate qualified executives and other key employees throughout all areas of our business . Identifying , developing internally or hiring externally , training and retaining highly-skilled managerial and other personnel are critical to our future, and competition for experienced employees can be intense. Failure to successfully hire executives and key employees or the loss of any executives and key employees could have a significant impact on our operations . The loss of services of any key personnel , the inability to retain and attract qualified personnel in the future, or delays in hiring may harm our business and results of operations.  Further , changes in our management team may be disruptive to our business , and any failure to successfully integrate key new hires could adversely affect our business and results of operations.

We face competition for staffing , which may increase our labor costs and reduce profitability .

We compete with other healthcare and services providers in recruiting qualified management, including executives with the required skills and experience to operate and grow our business, and staff personnel for the day-to-day operations of our business. These challenges may require us to enhance wages and benefits to recruit and retain qualified management and other professionals. Difficulties in attracting and retaining qualified management and other professionals , or in controlling labor costs, could have a material adverse effect on our profitability.

We are or may become a party to litigation that could potentially force us to pay significant damages and/or harm our reputation.

We are subject to certain legal proceedings that arise in the ordinary course of business . These legal proceedings and any other claims that we may face in the future, whether with or without merit , could result in costly litigation , and divert the time , attention , and resources of our management . Although we currently maintain various types of liability insurance , there can be no assurance that the coverage limits of such insurance policies will be adequate or that all such claims will be covered by insurance . Although we believe that we have conducted our operations in full compliance with applicable statutory and contractual requirements and that we have meritorious defenses to outstanding claims, it is possible that resolution of these legal matters could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.  In addition , legal expenses associated with the defense of these matters may be material to our results of operations in a particular financial reporting period.

We could be adversely affected by violations of the FCPA and similar anti-bribery laws of other countries in which we provided services prior to the sale of our TPHS business.

Because of the international operations that we previously conducted as part of our TPHS business that we sold to Sharecare in July 2016 , we could be adversely affected by violations of the FCPA and similar anti-bribery laws of other countries in which we provided services prior to the sale. The FCPA and similar anti-bribery laws generally prohibit companies and their intermediaries from making improper payments to government officials or other third parties for the purpose of obtaining or retaining business or gaining any business advantage . While our policies mandated compliance with these anti-bribery laws, we cannot provide assurance that our internal control policies and procedures always protected us from reckless or criminal acts committed by our employees, contractors or agents. Failure to comply with the FCPA and similar legislation prior to the sale of our TPHS business could result in the imposition of civil or criminal fines and penalties and could disrupt our business and adversely affect our results of operations, cash flows and financial condition.

Compliance with existing or newly adopted federal and state laws and regulations or new or revised interpretations of such requirements could adversely affect our results of operations or may require us to spend substantial amounts, and the failure to comply with applicable laws and regulations could subject us to penalties or negatively impact our ability to provide services .

Our customers are subject to considerable state and federal government regulation, and a substantial majority of our business involves providing services to Medicare Advantage beneficiaries. As a result, we are subject directly to various federal laws and regulations, including the federal False Claims Act, billing and reimbursement requirements and other provisions related to fraud and abuse. Further, our contracts with Medicare Advantage plans require us to comply with a number of regulatory provisions and permit these
 
12
customers to perform compliance audits. Many of these regulations are vaguely written and subject to differing interpretations that may, in certain cases, result in unintended consequences that could impact our ability to effectively deliver services. Further, we are required to comply with most requirements of the HIPAA privacy and security laws and regulations and may be subject to criminal or civil penalties for violations of these regulations. Certain of our services, including health utilization management and certain claims payment functions, require licensure and may be regulated by government agencies. We are subject to a variety of legal requirements in order to obtain and maintain such licenses, but little guidance is available to determine the scope of some of these requirements.

We continually monitor the extent to which federal and state legislation and regulations govern our operations. New federal or state laws or regulations or new interpretations of existing requirements that affect our operations could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations. If we are found to have violated applicable laws, to have caused any of our customers to submit false claims or make false statements, or to have failed to comply with our contractual compliance obligations, we could be required to restructure our operations, be subject to contractual penalties, including termination of our customer agreements, and be subject to significant civil and criminal penalties.

Healthcare reform efforts may result in a reduction to our revenues from government health programs and private insurance companies or otherwise directly or indirectly impact our business .

The healthcare industry is subject to various political, regulatory, scientific, and technological influences. Efforts at federal and state levels of government have resulted in laws and regulations intended to effect significant change within the healthcare system. The ACA, the most prominent of these efforts, affects coverage, delivery, and reimbursement of healthcare services. It has decreased the number of uninsured individuals, but may increase the costs and/or reduce the revenues of our customers or prospective customers . For example , the ACA eliminates pre-existing condition exclusions by commercial health plans , bans annual benefit limits, mandates minimum MLRs for health plans, and provides for reductions in funding to Medicare Advantage programs.

However, there is substantial uncertainty regarding the net effect and future impact of the ACA because of the results of the 2016 federal elections, which will likely result in the repeal of the ACA or significant changes to the ACA, its implementation and its interpretation. It is possible that the reforms imposed by the ACA or uncertainty regarding its repeal or significant changes to the law will adversely affect the profitability of our customers and cause our customers or prospective customers to reduce or delay the purchase of our services or to demand reduced fees. Because of this uncertainty and many other variables, including the ACA 's complexity , lack of implementing regulations or interpretive guidance and the outcome of court challenges, we are unable to predict all of the ways in which the ACA could impact the Company. Furthermore, we could also be impacted by future healthcare reform legislative and regulatory initiatives .

Item 2 . Properties

We lease approximately 264, 000 square feet of office space for our corporate headquarters in Franklin, Tennessee, approximately 221,000 square feet of which is subleased, pursuant to an agreement that expires in February 2023.  We also lease approximately 92,000 square feet of office space in Chandler, Arizona (pursuant to an agreement that expires in April 2020), and approximately 13,000 square feet of office space in Sterling, Virginia .

Item 3 . Legal Proceedings

We are subject to contractual disputes, claims and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business.  While we are unable to estimate a range of potential losses, we do not believe that any of the legal proceedings pending against us as of the date of this Report, some of which are expected to be covered by insurance policies, will have a material adverse effect on our financial statements.  As these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties, our view of these matters may change in the future.

Item 7 . Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Please read the following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations together with our Consolidated Financial Statements and related notes included under Item 8 of this Report .

Overview

Tivity Health, Inc. was founded and incorporated in Delaware in 1981.  Through our three programs, SilverSneakers® senior fitness, Prime ® fitness and WholeHealth Living TM , we are focused on targeted population health for those aged 50 and older. The SilverSneakers senior fitness program is offered to members of Medicare Advantage, Medicare Supplement, and Group Retiree plans. We also offer Prime fitness, a fitness facility access program, through commercial health plans, employers and insurance exchanges. Our national network of fitness centers delivers both SilverSneakers and Prime fitness. Our fitness networks encompass approximately 16,00 0 participating locations and more than 1,00 0 alternative locations that provide classes outside of traditional fitness centers .   We sell access to our WholeHealth Living network primarily to commercial health plans. Our WholeHealth Living network includes over 88,000 complementary, alternative, and physical medicine practitioners to serve individuals through health plans and employers who seek health services such as physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, chiropractic care, acupuncture and more .

Effective July 31, 2016, we sold our TPHS   business to Sharecare.  The TPHS business took a systematic approach to keeping healthy people healthy, eliminating or reducing lifestyle risks and optimizing care for persistent or chronic conditions.  The TPHS business included our partnerships with Blue Zones, LLC and Dr. Dean Ornish (the Blue Zones Project by Healthways™ and Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease™, respectively), our joint venture with Gallup, Navvis, MeYou Health, and our international operations.  While Navvis and MeYou Health were part of our TPHS business, they were sold separately to other buyers in November 2015 and June 2016, respectively.  Results of operations for the TPHS business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Consolidated Financial Statements.

In January 2017, we rebranded and changed the name of the company from Healthways, Inc. to Tivity Health, Inc. to better align with our portfolio of fitness and health improvement programs. The Company is headquartered at 701 Cool Springs Boulevard, Franklin, Tennessee 37067.

Critical Accounting Policies

We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.  We prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"), which requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period . Actual results may differ from those estimates.

Following the sale of the TPHS business, we believe the following accounting policies are the most critical in understanding the estimates and judgments that are involved in preparing our financial statements and the uncertainties that could impact our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.

Revenue Recognition

We recognize revenue as services are performed when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists , collectability is reasonably assured , and amounts are fixed or determinable.

Our fees are generally billed per member per month ("PMPM"), upon member participation ,   or a combination of both . For PMPM fees , we generally determine our contract fees by multiplying the contractually negotiated PMPM rate by the number of members eligible for or receiving our services during the month . Some of our contracts, predominantly within the now-disposed TPHS business, were performance-based and placed a portion of our fees at risk based on achieving certain performance metrics , cost savings, and/or clinical outcomes improvements.

We generally bill our customers each month for the entire amount of the fees contractually due for the prior month's enrollment , which typically includes the amount , if any , that is performance-based and may be subject to refund should we not meet performance targets.  Fees for participation are typically billed in the month after the services are provided .

We recognize revenue as follows: (1) we recognize the fixed portion of PMPM fees and fees for service as revenue during the period we perform our services; and (2) we recognize performance-based revenue based on the most recent assessment of our performance , which represents the amount that the customer would legally be obligated to pay if the contract were terminated as of the latest balance sheet date.

We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2014- 0 9 , (as discussed under "Recent Relevant Accounting Standards" below) will have on our revenue recognition policies and procedures,
 
22
financial position, result of operations, cash flows, financial disclosures and control framework.

Impairment of Intangible Assets and Goodwill

We review goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis (during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year) or more frequently whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable . Following the sale of the TPHS business, a single reporting unit remains.

We may elect to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value . If we conclude during the qualitative assessment that this is the case or if we elect not to perform a qualitative assessment , we perform a quantitative review as described below.

During a quantitative review of goodwill , we estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using a combination of a discounted cash flow model and a market-based approach , and in the event we were to have multiple reporting units, we reconcile the aggregate fair value of our reporting units to our consolidated market capitalization . Estimating fair value requires significant judgments , including management's estimate of future cash flows , which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term growth rate for our business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur , and determination of our weighted average cost of capital , as well as relevant comparable company earnings multiples for the market-based approach. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the estimate of fair value and potential goodwill impairment for each reporting unit.

If we determine that the carrying value of goodwill is impaired based upon an impairment review , we calculate any impairment using a fair-value-based goodwill impairment test as required by U.S . GAAP. The fair value of a reporting unit is the price that would be received upon a sale of the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

Except for a tradename that has an indefinite life and is not subject to amortization , we amortize identifiable intangible assets over their estimated useful lives using the straight-line method . We assess the potential impairment of intangible assets subject to amortization whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable . If we determine that the carrying value of other identifiable intangible assets may not be recoverable , we calculate any impairment using an estimate of the asset's fair value based on the estimated price that would be received to sell the asset in an orderly transaction between market participants. We estimated the fair value of our indefinite-lived intangible asset, a tradename, using a present value technique, which requires management's estimate of future revenues attributable to this tradename, estimation of the long-term growth rate and royalty rate for this revenue, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital.  Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the estimate of fair value for the tradename.

Income Taxes

The objectives of accounting for income taxes are to recognize the amount of taxes payable or refundable for the current year and deferred tax liabilities and assets for the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in an entity's financial statements or tax returns.  Accounting for income taxes requires significant judgment in evaluating tax positions and in determining income tax provisions , including determination of deferred tax assets , deferred tax liabilities , and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets.

Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are expected to be realized . When we determine that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset is made and reflected in income. This determination will be made by considering various factors, including the reversal and timing of existing temporary differences, tax planning strategies and estimates of future taxable income exclusive of the reversal of temporary differences.

We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities, based on the technical merits of the position.
 
23
The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position should be measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 5 0 % likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement . U.S . GAAP also provides guidance on derecognition of income tax assets and liabilities, classification of current and deferred income tax assets and liabilities, accounting for interest and penalties associated with tax positions, and income tax disclosures. Judgment is required in assessing the future tax consequences of events that have been recognized in our financial statements or tax returns . Variations in the actual outcome of these future tax consequences could materially impact our consolidated financial position , results of operations , and cash flows.

Share-Based Compensation

We measure and recognize compensation expense for all share-based payment awards over the required vesting period based on estimated fair values at the date of grant. Determining the fair value of stock options at the grant date requires judgment in developing assumptions, which involve a number of variables.  These variables include, but are not limited to, the expected stock price volatility over the term of the awards and expected stock option exercise behavior. In addition, we also use judgment in estimating the number of share-based awards that are expected to be forfeited. These assumptions and judgments are further described in Note 13 to the Consolidated Financial Statements.

Revenues

Revenues from continuing operations for 2016 increased $48.9 million , or 10.8% , over 2015 , primarily as a result of the following: an increase of $49.0 million due to both a net increase in the number of members eligible to participate in our fitness solutions as well as a net increase in the average participation per member in such solutions, an increase of $5.4 million due to contracts with new customers or expanded contracts with existing customers, and a decrease of $5.5 million due to contract terminations.

Revenues from continuing operations for 2015 increased $46.8 million , or 11.6% , over 2014 , primarily as a result of the following: an increase of $61.1 million due to both a net increase in the number of members eligible to participate in our fitness solutions as well as a net increase in the average participation per member in such solutions, an increase of $7.5 million due to contracts with new customers or expanded contracts with existing customers, and a decrease of $21.7 million due to contract terminations.

25
Cost of Services

Cost of services from continuing operations (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenues did not materially change from 2015 (70.4%) to 2016 (71.3%).  Overall, this slight increase is primarily attributable to an increase in short-term incentive compensation due to the Company's financial performance against established targets.

Cost of services from continuing operations (excluding depreciation and amortization) as a percentage of revenues increased from 67.2% for 2014 to 70.4% for 2015 primarily due to a change in the mix of customer contracts, with a greater number of contracts containing a somewhat fixed revenue structure, while the related contract costs remained variable.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling , general and administrative expenses from continuing operations as a percentage of revenues remained consistent at 7.9% for 2016, 2015, and 2 0 14.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations decreased $2.8 million from 2015 to 2016, primarily due to a decrease in the amount of depreciable assets .

Depreciation and amortization expense from continuing operations remained relatively consistent for 2015 compared to 2014.

Restructuring and Related Charges

During 2016, we incurred restructuring charges from continuing operations of $4.9 million, primarily in connection with the reorganization of our corporate support infrastructure (the "2016 Restructuring Plan"), which we began implementing in the third quarter of 2016. We expect to incur a total of approximately   $6.0   million in restructuring charges related to the 2016 Restructuring Plan, with the majority incurred in 2016 and the remainder expected to be incurred in the first quarter of 2017 and to consist of severance and other employee-related costs.  The 2016 Restructuring Plan is expected to create cost savings beginning in 2017, with total annualized savings of approximately   $15.0   million to   $16.0   million, approximately half of which we expect to be reinvested into business initiatives during 2017 intended to drive increased growth in 2018 .

During 2015, we incurred restructuring charges from continuing operations of $0.7 million in connection with our reorganization and cost rationalization plan (the "2015 Restructuring Plan") , which primarily consisted of one-time termination benefits .

We did not incur any restructuring charges from continuing operations in 2014.

Legal Settlement Charges

During 2 0 14 , we incurred legal settlement charges from continuing operations of $5.9 million in connection with the Company's settlement of two legal matters .

Interest Expense

Interest expense from continuing operations remained relatively consistent for 2016, 2015 and 2014.

Income Tax Expense

For the year ended December 31, 2016, we had an effective income tax rate from continuing operations of 28.1%, compared to an effective income tax rate of 40.2% for the year ended December 31, 2015, primarily due to an income tax benefit of $9.6 million recognized during 2016 related to the   reversal of a domestic deferred tax asset valuation allowance initially recorded in the fourth quarter of 2015.

26
         Our effective income tax rate from continuing operations remained relatively consistent from 2014 to 2015 .

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

As of December 31, 2016, we had a working capital deficit of $74.3 million, including outstanding aggregate borrowings under our credit facility of $44.8 million due by December 31, 2017.  As of February 28, 2017, we had cash of $20.1 million, and, based upon the pro-forma calculations of compliance with the restrictive covenants under our credit agreement, we anticipate the ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility up to a maximum of $125.0 million through June 8, 2017 and up to a maximum of $79.7 million for the period beginning on June 9, 2017 and ending on June 8, 2018. We believe our cash on hand, cash flows from operations and available borrowings are sufficient to fund our operations, debt payments and capital expenditures for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future .

Cash Flows Provided by Operating Activities

Operating activities during 2016 provided cash of $37.9 million compared to $61.0 million during 2015 . The decrease in operating cash flow resulted primarily from the following:

•
a decrease in cash collections on accounts receivable;
•
payments associated with the sale of the TPHS business, including consulting and transaction fees and certain employee-related payments; and
•
increased payments related to restructuring activities, such as severance and lease costs.

These decreases were partially offset by an increase in operating cash flows related to legal settlement payments in 2015 that did not recur in 2016.

Operating activities during 2015 provided cash of $61 .0 million compared to $52 . 1 million during 2014 . The increase in operating cash flows resulted primarily from the following:

•
a decrease in day sales outstanding in accounts receivable from 58 days at December 31, 2014 to 53 days at December 31 , 2015; and
•
the timing of several significant vendor payments.

Cash Flows Used in Investing Activities

Investing activities during 2016 used $38.9 million in cash , as compared to $37.4 million during 2015 , which was primarily due to decreased capital expenditures in 2016 associated with our technology platform, offset by payments made to Sharecare related to the sale of the TPHS business.

Investing activities during 2015 used $37.4 million in cash , as compared to $51 . 2 million during 2014 , which , in each case, primarily consisted of capital expenditures associated with our technology platform.

Cash Flows Provided By/Used in Financing Activities

Financing activities during 2016 provided $1.0 million in cash, while financing activities during 2015 used $21.9 million in cash.  This change is primarily due to a decrease in net payments under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement during 2016 and increased proceeds from the exercise of stock options.

Financing activities during 2015 used $21.9 million in cash, as compared to $0.2 million during 2014, primarily due to an increase in net payments under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement during 2015 and the change in our cash overdraft position.

Credit Facility

For a detailed description of the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement, refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Report.  The Fifth Amended Credit Agreement contains financial
 
27
covenants that require us to maintain specified ratios or levels at December 31, 2016 of (1) a maximum total funded debt to EBITDA of 3.50 and (2) a minimum total fixed charge coverage of 1.50.  We were in compliance with all of the financial covenant requirements of the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement as of December 31, 2016. 

Cash Convertible Senior Notes

For a detailed description of the Cash Convertible Notes, Cash Convertible Notes Hedges, Cash Conversion Derivative, and Warrants (as such terms are defined in Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements) entered into in July 2013, refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report. Aside from the initial premium paid, we will not be required to make any cash payments under the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and could be entitled to receive an amount of cash from the option counterparties generally equal to the amount by which the market price per share of common stock exceeds the strike price of the Cash Convertible Note Hedges during the relevant valuation period. The strike price under the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges is initially equal to the conversion price of the Cash Convertible Notes. Although the Cash Convertible Notes are not currently convertible, the Cash Convertible Notes will become convertible into cash during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to approximately $25.30 per share. The last reported sale price of our common stock as reported on Nasdaq on   March 1, 2017 was $28.95   per share.

The estimated fair value based on the last traded price of the Cash Convertible Note at December 31, 2016 was $187.7 million (as discussed in Note 9 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report). Additionally, if the market price per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the Warrants on any warrant exercise date, we will be obligated to issue to the option counterparties a number of shares based on the amount by which the then-current market price per share of our common stock exceeds the then-effective strike price of each Warrant. We will not receive any additional proceeds if the Warrants are exercised.

CareFirst Convertible Note

For a description of the CareFirst Convertible Note and CareFirst Warrants, refer to Note 7 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report.

General
We believe that cash flows from operating activities, our available cash, and our anticipated available credit under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement will continue to enable us to meet our contractual obligations and fund our current operations and debt payments for at least the next 12 months.  We cannot assure you that we would always be able to secure additional financing if needed and, if such funds were available, whether the terms or conditions would be acceptable to us.

If contract development accelerates or acquisition opportunities arise, we may need to issue additional debt or equity securities to provide the funding for these increased growth opportunities. We may also issue debt or equity securities in connection with future acquisitions or strategic alliances.  We cannot assure you that we would be able to issue additional debt or equity securities on terms that would be acceptable to us.

Any material commitments for capital expenditures are included in the "Contractual Obligations" table below.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements as of December 31 , 2016.

Recent Relevant Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU No. 2014-09, which creates Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC Topic 606") and supersedes ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition." The provisions of ASC Topic 606 provide for a single comprehensive principles-based standard for the recognition of revenue across all industries and expanded disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue, as well as certain additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years.  The guidance permits the use of either a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We have not yet selected a transition method.  We are currently conducting analysis to quantify the adoption impact of the provisions of the new standard and evaluating our current contracts and revenue streams. The FASB has issued, and may issue in the future, interpretive guidance which may cause our evaluation to change. We believe we are following an appropriate timeline to allow for proper recognition, presentation and disclosure upon adoption effective the beginning of fiscal year 2018.
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," which requires management to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern and, if so, provide certain footnote disclosures. This ASU is effective for annual periods ending after
 
29
December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods thereafter. This ASU was adopted in the fourth quarter of 2016 and did not have an impact on our financial statements or footnote disclosures.
 
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, "  which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This ASU was adopted in the first quarter of 2016 and has been applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard resulted in debt issuance costs being presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability and totaled $2.3 million and $4.1 million as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, "Income Taxes: Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes" ("ASU 2015-17"), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the separate classification of deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 require that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheet. This ASU was adopted in the first quarter of 2016 and is presented prospectively.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases"   ("ASU 2016-02"), which requires that lessees recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms greater than twelve months in the statement of financial position. ASU 2016-02 also requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those years. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In March 2016, the FASB Issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2016-09"), which we adopted on January 1, 2017.  ASU 2016-09 requires all income tax effects of share-based awards to be recognized in the income statement, which were previously presented as a component of shareholders' equity, on a prospective basis.  In addition, any excess tax benefits that were not previously recognized because the related tax deduction had not reduced current taxes payable are to be recorded on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption, which resulted in an increase of $6.5 million to our retained earnings as of January 1, 2017.  Regarding the statement of cash flows, the standard (a) requires the presentation of excess tax benefits as an operating activity rather than as a financing activity and (b) that cash paid by the Company when directly withholding shares for tax withholding purposes be classified as a financing activity on a retrospective basis. The standard also allows for an accounting policy election to estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or to account for forfeitures when they occur. We elected to account for forfeitures as they occur, which did not result in a material cumulative effect adjustment to our retained earnings as of January 1, 2017.  Finally, the standard no longer allows windfall tax benefits to be included in the assumed proceeds when applying the treasury stock method for computing diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), which will result in share-based awards having a more dilutive effect on EPS.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows" (Topic 230) ("ASU 2016-15").  ASU 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a retrospective approach. We are currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU 2016-15.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,  " Intangibles - Goodwill and Other", which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test.  ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is required to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is allowed for annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We have not yet determined the effect of the standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to market risk related to interest rate changes, primarily as a result of the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement.  Borrowings under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement generally bear interest at variable rates based on a margin or spread in excess of either (1) one-month, two-month, three-month or six-month (or with the approval of affected lenders, nine-month or twelve-month) LIBOR or (2) the greatest of (a) the SunTrust Bank prime lending rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% (the "Base Rate") , as selected by the Company.  The LIBOR margin varies between 1.75% and 3.00%, and the Base Rate margin varies between 0.75% and 2.00%, depending on our leverage ratio. 

We estimate that a one-point interest rate change in our floating rate debt would have resulted in a change in interest expense of approximately $0.6 million for the year ended December 31 , 2 0 16.

Item 8 . Financial Statements and Supplementary Data

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of Tivity Health, Inc.

In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated balance sheets and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive (income) loss, changes in stockholders' equity, and cash flows present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Tivity Health, Inc. and its subsidiaries at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2016 in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.  Also in our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2016, based on criteria established in Internal Control - Integrated Framework   (2013)   issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO).  The Company's management is responsible for these financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting , included in Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting appearing under Item 9A.  Our responsibility is to express opinions on these financial statements and on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our integrated audits .   We conducted our audits i n accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States).  Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement and whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects.  Our audits of the financial statements included examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  Our audit of internal control over financial reporting included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, and testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk.  Our audits also included performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinions.

A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.  A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (i) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (ii) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (iii) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements.  Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Years Ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 , and 2014

1.
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Tivity Health, Inc. was founded and incorporated in Delaware in 1981.  Through our three programs, SilverSneakers® senior fitness, Prime ® fitness and WholeHealth Living TM , we are focused on targeted population health for those aged 50 and older. In January 2017, we rebranded and changed the name of the Company from Healthways, Inc. to Tivity Health, Inc. to better align with our portfolio of fitness and health improvement programs.

Our results from continuing operations do not include the results of the total population health services ("TPHS") business, which we sold effective July 31, 2016.  The TPHS business included our partnerships with Blue Zones, LLC and Dr. Dean Ornish (the Blue Zones Project by Healthways™ and Dr. Dean Ornish's Program for Reversing Heart Disease™, respectively), our joint venture with Gallup, Inc. ("Gallup"), Navvis Healthcare, LLC ("Navvis"), MeYou Health, LLC ("MeYou Health"), and our international operations, including our joint venture with SulAmérica .  While Navvis and MeYou Health were part of our TPHS business, they were sold separately to other buyers in November 2015 and June 2016, respectively.  Results of operations for the TPHS business have been classified as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

On March 11, 2015, we formed a joint venture with SulAmérica, one of the largest independent insurers in Brazil, to sell total population health services to the Brazilian market. With its contribution, SulAmérica acquired a 49% interest in the joint venture, Healthways Brasil Servicos de Consultoria LTDA ("Healthways Brazil"). We determined that our interest in Healthways Brazil represented a controlling financial interest and, therefore, prior to selling the TPHS business, consolidated the financial statements of Healthways Brazil and presented a non-controlling interest for the portion owned by SulAmérica. The net assets and results of operations of Healthways Brazil are included within discontinued operations in the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements.

We have reclassified certain items in prior periods to conform to current classifications.   As used throughout these notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements , unless the context otherwise indicates, the terms "we," "us," "our," or the "Company" refer collectively to Tivity Health , Inc . and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

a.
Principles of Consolidation – See discussion above regarding the TPHS business, including a non-controlling interest.  We have eliminated all intercompany profits, transactions and balances.

b.
Cash and Cash Equivalents - Cash and cash equivalents primarily include cash on deposit.

c.
Accounts Receivable, net - Accounts receivable includes billed and unbilled amounts.  Billed receivables represent fees that are contractually due for services performed , net of contractual allowances (reflected as a reduction of revenue) and allowances for doubtful accounts (reflected as selling, general and administrative expenses). These combined allowances totaled $0.7 million at both December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 . Unbilled receivables primarily represent fees recognized for monthly member utilization of fitness facilities under our SilverSneakers fitness solution, billed one month in arrears.  Historically , we have experienced minimal instances of customer non-payment and therefore consider our accounts receivable to be collectible; however, we provide reserves, when appropriate, for doubtful accounts and for contractual allowances (such as data reconciliation differences) on a specific identification basis.

d.
Property and Equipment - Property and equipment is carried at cost and includes expenditures that increase value or extend useful lives. We recognize depreciation using the straight-line method over useful lives of three to seven years for computer software and hardware and four to seven years for furniture and other office equipment.  Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of the estimated life of the asset or the life of the lease , which ranges from two to fifteen years.  Depreciation expense for the years ended December 31, 2016, 2 0 15, and 2 0 14 was $3.6 million, $6.3 million, and $6.5 million, respectively, including depreciation of assets recorded under capital leases.

e.
Other Assets - Other assets consist primarily of an adjustable convertible equity right (see Note 3) .

40
f.
Intangible Assets - Intangible assets subject to amortization include customer contracts, acquired technology, and distributor and provider networks , which we amortized on a straight-line basis over estimated useful lives ranging from three to ten years . All intangible assets subject to amortization were fully amortized at December 31, 2016.

We assess the potential impairment of intangible assets subject to amortization whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying values may not be recoverable. If we determine that the carrying value of identifiable intangible assets may not be recoverable, we calculate any impairment using an estimate of the asset's fair value based on the estimated price that would be received to sell the asset in an orderly transaction between market participants.

Intangible assets not subject to amortization at December 31, 2016 and 2 0 15 consist of a trade name of $29 .0 million . We review intangible assets not subject to amortization on an annual basis or more frequently whenever events or circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired . See Note 5 for further information on intangible assets.

g.
Goodwill - We recognize goodwill for the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of tangible and identifiable intangible net assets of businesses that we acquire.

We review goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment) on an annual basis (during the fourth quarter the fiscal year) or more frequently whenever events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. Following the sale of the TPHS business effective July 31, 2016, a single reporting unit remains.

We may elect to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying value. If we conclude during the qualitative assessment that this is the case or if we elect not to perform a qualitative assessment, we perform a quantitative review as described below.

During a quantitative review of goodwill, we estimate the fair value of a reporting unit using a combination of a discounted cash flow model and a market-based approach, and in the event we were to have multiple reporting units, we reconcile the aggregate fair value of our reporting units to our consolidated market capitalization. Estimating fair value requires significant judgments, including management's estimate of future cash flows, which is dependent on internal forecasts, estimation of the long-term growth rate for our business, the useful life over which cash flows will occur, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital, as well as relevant comparable company earnings multiples for the market-based approach. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the estimate of fair value and potential goodwill impairment for a reporting unit.

If we determine that the carrying value of goodwill is impaired, we calculate any impairment using a fair-value based goodwill impairment test as required by U.S. GAAP. The fair value of a reporting unit is the price that would be received upon a sale of the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date.

h.
Accounts Payable - Accounts payable consists of short-term trade obligations and includes cash overdrafts attributable to disbursements not yet cleared by the bank.

i.
Income Taxes - We file a consolidated federal income tax return that includes all of our wholly-owned subsidiaries . U.S . GAAP generally require that we record deferred income taxes for the tax effect of differences between the book and tax bases of our assets and liabilities . We recognize the tax benefit from an uncertain tax position only if it is more likely than not that the tax position will be sustained on examination by the taxing authorities , based on the technical merits of the position.  The tax benefits recognized in the financial statements from such a position are measured based on the largest benefit that has a greater than 5 0 % likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement.

Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts that are expected to be realized . When we determine that it is more likely than not that we will be able to realize our deferred tax assets in the future, an adjustment to the deferred tax asset is made and reflected in income.

j.
Revenue Recognition - We recognize revenue as services are performed when persuasive evidence of an arrangement exists , collectability is reasonably assured , and amounts are fixed or determinable.

41
Our fees are generally billed per member per month ("PMPM"), upon member participation ,   or a combination of both . For PMPM fees, we generally determine our contract fees by multiplying the contractually negotiated PMPM rate by the number of members eligible for or receiving our services during the month . Some of our contracts, predominantly within the now disposed TPHS business, were performance-based and placed a portion of our fees at risk based on achieving certain performance metrics, cost savings, and/or clinical outcomes improvements.

We generally bill our customers each month for the entire amount of the fees contractually due for the prior month's enrollment , which typically includes the amount , if any , that is performance-based and may be subject to refund should we not meet performance targets.  Fees for participation are typically billed in the month after the services are provided .

We recognize revenue as follows: (1) we recognize the fixed portion of PMPM fees and fees for service as revenue during the period we perform our services; and (2) we recognize performance-based revenue based on the most recent assessment of our performance , which represents the amount that the customer would legally be obligated to pay if the contract were terminated as of the latest balance sheet date.

We are currently evaluating the impact that the adoption of ASU No. 2014-09 (as discussed under "Recent Relevant Accounting Standards" below) will have on our revenue recognition policies and procedures, financial position, results of operations, cash flows, financial disclosures, and control framework .

k.
Earnings (Loss) Per Share – We calculate basic earnings (loss) per share using weighted average common shares outstanding during the period.  We calculate diluted earnings (loss) per share using weighted average common shares outstanding during the period plus the effect of all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period unless the impact would be anti-dilutive. See Note 15 for a reconciliation of basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share.

l.
Share-Based Compensation – We recognize all share - based payments to employees in the consolidated statements of operations over the required vesting period based on estimated fair values at the date of grant.  See Note 13 for further information on share - based compensation.

m.
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities – We use derivative instruments to manage risks related to interest expense and the cash convertible senior notes (as discussed in Note 7) . We account for derivatives in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standard Codification ("ASC") Topic 815 , which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that certain derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at fair value . Additionally , changes in the derivative's fair value will be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met . As permitted under our master netting arrangements , the fair value amounts of our interest rate swaps are presented on a net basis by counterparty in the consolidated balance sheets . See Note 10 for further information on derivative instruments and hedging activities.

n.
Management Estimates – In preparing our consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S . GAAP, management must make estimates and assumptions that affect: (1) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements; and (2) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

2.
Recent Relevant Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") No. 2014-09, which creates Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 606, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" ("ASC Topic 606") and supersedes ASC Topic 605, "Revenue Recognition." The provisions of ASC Topic 606 provide for a single comprehensive principles-based standard for the recognition of revenue across all industries and expanded disclosure about the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue, as well as certain additional quantitative and qualitative disclosures. The standard is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those years.  The guidance permits the use of either a retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. We have not yet selected a transition method.  We are currently conducting analysis to quantify the adoption impact of the provisions of the new standard and evaluating our current contracts and revenue streams. The FASB has issued, and may issue in the
 
42
future, interpretive guidance which may cause our evaluation to change. We believe we are following an appropriate timeline to allow for proper recognition, presentation and disclosure upon adoption effective the beginning of fiscal year 2018.
 
In August 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-15, "Presentation of Financial Statements – Going Concern: Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity's Ability to Continue as a Going Concern," which requires management to evaluate whether there is substantial doubt about the entity's ability to continue as a going concern and, if so, provide certain footnote disclosures. This ASU is effective for annual periods ending after December 15, 2016, including interim reporting periods thereafter. This ASU was adopted in the fourth quarter of 2016 and did not have an impact on our financial statements or footnote disclosures.
 
In April 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-03, "Simplifying the Presentation of Debt Issuance Costs, "  which requires that debt issuance costs related to a recognized debt liability be presented in the balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability, consistent with debt discounts. This ASU was adopted in the first quarter of 2016 and has been applied on a retrospective basis to all periods presented. The adoption of this standard resulted in debt issuance costs being presented as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of the related debt liability and totaled $2.3 million and $4.1 million as of December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively.

In November 2015, the FASB issued ASU No. 2015-17, "Income Taxes: Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes" ("ASU 2015-17"), which simplifies the presentation of deferred income taxes by eliminating the separate classification of deferred income tax liabilities and assets into current and noncurrent amounts in the consolidated balance sheet. The amendments in ASU 2015-17 require that all deferred tax liabilities and assets be classified as noncurrent in the consolidated balance sheet. This ASU was adopted in the first quarter of 2016 and is presented prospectively.
 
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, "Leases"   ("ASU 2016-02"), which requires that lessees recognize assets and liabilities for leases with lease terms greater than twelve months in the statement of financial position. ASU 2016-02 also requires improved disclosures to help users of financial statements better understand the amount, timing and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. The update is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim reporting periods within those years. We are currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU 2016-02 will have on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

In March 2016, the FASB Issued ASU No. 2016-09, "Compensation-Stock Compensation (Topic 718): Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting" ("ASU 2016-09"), which we adopted on January 1, 2017.  ASU 2016-09 requires all income tax effects of share-based awards to be recognized in the income statement, which were previously presented as a component of shareholders' equity, on a prospective basis.  In addition, any excess tax benefits that were not previously recognized because the related tax deduction had not reduced current taxes payable are to be recorded on a modified retrospective basis through a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of the beginning of the period of adoption, which will result in an increase of $6.5 million to our retained earnings as of January 1, 2017.  Regarding the statement of cash flows, the standard requires the presentation of excess tax benefits as an operating activity rather than as a financing activity and that cash paid by the Company when directly withholding shares for tax withholding purposes be classified as a financing activity on a retrospective basis. The standard also allows for an accounting policy election to estimate the number of awards that are expected to vest or to account for forfeitures when they occur. We elected to account for forfeitures as they occur, which did not result in a material cumulative effect adjustment to our retained earnings as of January 1, 2017.  Finally, the standard no longer allows windfall tax benefits to be included in the assumed proceeds when applying the treasury stock method for computing diluted earnings per share ("EPS"), which will result in share-based awards having a more dilutive effect on EPS.

In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-15, "Statement of Cash Flows" (Topic 230) ("ASU 2016-15").  ASU No. 2016-15 addresses how certain cash receipts and cash payments are presented and classified in the statement of cash flows. ASU 2016-15 is effective in the first quarter of 2018, with early adoption permitted, and is to be applied using a retrospective approach. The company is currently evaluating the potential effects of adopting the provisions of ASU 2016-15.

43
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04,  " Intangibles - Goodwill and Other", which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by eliminating step two from the goodwill impairment test.  ASU No. 2017-04 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests in fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2019 and is required to be applied prospectively. Early adoption is allowed for annual goodwill impairment tests performed on testing dates after January 1, 2017. We have not yet determined the effect of the standard on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.
 
3.
Discontinued Operations
 
        On July 27, 2016, we entered into a Membership Interest Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Sharecare, Inc. ("Sharecare"), and Healthways SC, LLC ("Healthways SC"), a newly formed Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, pursuant to which Sharecare acquired the TPHS business, which closed effective July 31, 2016 ("Closing").

At Closing, Sharecare delivered to the Company an Adjustable Convertible Equity Right (the "ACER") with an initial face value of $30.0 million, which will be convertible into shares of common stock of Sharecare 24 months after the Closing, at an initial conversion price of $249.87 per share, subject to customary adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends and other reorganizations of Sharecare.  Additionally, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, we paid Sharecare $25.0 million in cash at the Closing to fund projected losses of the TPHS business during the year following the Closing (the "Transition Year"). Pursuant to Sharecare's acquisition of the TPHS business, our ownership interest in the joint venture with Gallup was transferred to Sharecare. We agreed with Sharecare to be responsible for two-thirds of the remaining payment obligations in respect of the purchase price to be paid in connection with Sharecare's acquisition of additional membership interest in the joint venture. This obligation is currently expected to result in aggregate payments by us of approximately $4.2 million, payable in five equal quarterly installments that began in the fourth quarter of the 2016 calendar year and end in the fourth quarter of the 2017 calendar year. As of December 31, 2016, this obligation totaled $3.3 million and was included in accrued liabilities.
 
 The Purchase Agreement provided for post-closing adjustments based on (i) net working capital (which is expected to result in an increase in the face amount of the ACER due to a net working capital surplus, as further discussed below), (ii) negative cash flows of the TPHS business during the Transition Year in excess of $25.0 million (which may result in a reduction in the face amount of the ACER up to a maximum reduction of $20.0 million), and (iii) any successful claims for indemnification by Sharecare (which may result in a reduction in the face amount of the ACER, unless the Company elects, in its sole discretion, to satisfy any such successful claims with cash payments).
 
We recorded the ACER net of the $20.0 million face value maximum negative cash flow adjustment, or $10.0 million face value, at its estimated fair value of $2.7 million as of the Closing.  We have classified this amount as an equity receivable included in other assets.  We will record the $20.0 million face value contingent portion of the ACER at its estimated fair value as of the date the contingency is resolved, expected to be approximately 12 months from Closing. As of December 31, 2016, we recorded an estimate of the net working capital adjustment (a surplus), which resulted in an estimated fair value of the ACER of $5.7 million.  The working capital adjustment is subject to the review process set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

The terms of the Purchase Agreement also impacted other existing contractual commitments, including the elimination of the minimum fee requirements under our technology services outsourcing agreement with HP Enterprise Services, LLC ("HP").
 
Effective July 31, 2016, in connection with the Closing, the Company and CareFirst Holdings, LLC ("CareFirst"), agreed to terminate the Investment Agreement between them (see Note 7).  Also in connection with the Closing, all of the Commercial Agreements (defined in Note 7) between the Company and CareFirst relating to the TPHS business were transferred to Healthways SC that, effective at the Closing, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sharecare.  As a result, CareFirst no longer has the opportunity to earn CareFirst Warrants in respect of the periods following the Closing.  The Convertible Note, the Registration Rights Agreement and the CareFirst Warrants previously issued to CareFirst were not affected by the termination of the Investment Agreement.

On November 1, 2015, we sold Navvis, a provider of healthcare consulting and advisory services, for $4.4 million in cash, which resulted in a gain of $1.9 million.

In June 2016, we sold the assets of MeYou Health, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company that was engaged in the business of developing and delivering certain digital health applications, for $5.5 million in cash and additional contingent consideration up to $1.5 million, which resulted in a loss of $4.8 million. This loss is included in loss from discontinued operations in our consolidated statement of comprehensive income (loss) for the year ended December 31, 2016.

No goodwill was allocated to the disposal group in connection with the sale of the TPHS business.

As of December 31 , 2 0 16 and December 31 , 2015, the gross amount of goodwill totaled $517. 0 million and $519.3 million, respectively, and we had accumulated impairment losses of $182 . 4 million.

At December 31 , 2016 , we provided valuation allowances for $3.3 million of deferred tax assets associated with our international net operating loss carryforwards and $11.9 million for deferred tax assets related to capital loss carryforwards incurred in the sale of the TPHS business.  As a result, we recorded a total increase in our valuation allowance of $1.6 million for the year ended December 31 , 2016.  Of the change in valuation allowance for 2016, $9.6 million of income tax benefit was allocated to continuing operations that related to the reversal of a valuation allowance on domestic deferred tax assets initially recorded at December 31, 2015.  We believe that the projected core earnings of the remaining business will be sufficient to utilize the net operating losses within the expiration period.  The $11.2 million offsetting increase in valuation allowance for 2016 related to international net operating loss and capital loss carryforwards and was allocated to discontinued operations. Our valuation allowance as of December 31 , 2 0 16 is $15.2 million.

At December 31 , 2016 , we had international net operating loss carryforwards totaling approximately $12.8 million with an indefinite carryforward period , approximately $177.6 million of federal net operating loss carryforwards , approximately $207.2 million of state net operating loss carryforwards expiring between 2017 and 2036, and approximately $30.0 million of capital loss carryforwards expiring in 2021. Of the federal loss carryforwards, $6.9 million originating from acquired entities is subject to an annual limitation under Internal Revenue Code Section 382 and expire in 2021 , if not utilized . The remainder of the federal net operating loss carryforwards will expire between 2035 and 2036.

Pursuant to ASC Topic 718-740 , "Stock Compensation", we are tracking in a separate memo account the portion of our cumulative net operating losses attributable to excess tax deductions from share-based payment awards, which totaled $16.5 million and $4.0 million at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015, respectively. The tax benefits related to these amounts were not included in our gross or net deferred tax assets and were not recorded to additional paid - in capital since the related tax deduction would not have reduced cash taxes payable .   Upon the adoption of ASU 2016-09 on January 1, 2017, these previously unrecognized excess tax benefits will be recorded as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings as of January 1, 2017.  For 2014, the tax benefit of share-based compensation , excluding the tax benefit related to the deferred tax asset for share - based payments, was recorded as additional paid-in capital.

We recorded a tax effect of $157,000 , $1 ,000, and $44,000 in 2016 , 2015 and 2014 , respectively , related to our interest rate swap agreements to stockholders' equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

After the sale of the TPHS business, we determined that the undistributed earnings of the Company's remaining foreign subsidiaries were not permanently reinvested.  As a result, we recorded a $1.6 million deferred tax liability on $13.9 million of undistributed earnings at December 31, 2016.  At December 31, 2015, the undistributed earnings were considered to be indefinitely reinvested, and no U.S. federal or state income taxes were recorded thereon .

The difference between income tax expense computed using the statutory federal income tax rate and the effective rate is as follows:

Uncertain Tax Positions

As of December 31 , 2016 , we had no unrecognized tax benefits that would affect our effective tax rate . Our policy is to include interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in income tax expense . During 2015 , we included an immaterial amount of net interest related to uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense . During 2016 and 2014, there were no interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits recorded as income tax expense.

The aggregate changes in the balance of unrecognized tax benefits , exclusive of interest , were as follows:

Credit Facility

On June 8, 2012, we entered into the Fifth Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Term Loan Agreement (as amended, the "Fifth Amended Credit Agreement").  As amended in August 2016 and further described below, the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement provides us with a $125 million revolving credit facility that includes a swingline sub facility of $20 million and a $75 million sub facility for letters of credit.  The Fifth Amended
 
49
Credit Agreement also provides a $200 million term loan facility, $60 million of which remained outstanding at December 31, 2016, and an uncommitted incremental accordion facility of $100 million.
 
Borrowings under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement generally bear interest at variable rates based on a margin or spread in excess of either (1) the one-month, two-month, three-month or six-month rate (or with the approval of affected lenders, nine-month or twelve-month rate) for Eurodollar deposits ("LIBOR", which may not be less than zero), or (2) the greatest of (a) the SunTrust Bank prime lending rate, (b) the federal funds rate plus 0.50% and (c) one-month LIBOR plus 1.00% (the "Base Rate"), as selected by the Company.  The LIBOR margin varies between 1.75% and 3.00%, and the Base Rate margin varies between 0.75% and 2.00%, depending on our leverage ratio.  The Fifth Amended Credit Agreement also provides for an annual fee ranging between 0.30% and 0.50% of the unused commitments under the revolving credit facility.  Extensions of credit under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement are secured by guarantees from all of the Company's active domestic subsidiaries and by security interests in substantially all of the Company's and such subsidiaries' assets.

 On August 4, 2016, we entered into the Eighth Amendment to the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement (the "Eighth Amendment").  The Eighth Amendment (1) extends the expiration date of the Company's revolving credit facility and the maturity date of the Company's term loan facility under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement from June 8, 2017 to June 8, 2018 (the "Extended Maturity Date") and (2) amends the definition of "Consolidated EBITDA" to include an add-back for certain non-cash gains and losses and to take into account certain financial consequences of the sale by the Company of its TPHS business to Sharecare pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.  The Eighth Amendment contemplates that some lenders might not agree to the Extended Maturity Date and preserved June 8, 2017 as the non-extended maturity date (the "Non-Extended Maturity Date") for such lenders.  Lenders holding $45.3 million of the revolving commitments and $25.4 million of outstanding term loans as of August 4, 2016 did not consent to the Extended Maturity Date.  On the Non-Extended Maturity Date, the revolving commitments of non-consenting revolving lenders will terminate and any outstanding term loans and revolving loans owed to non-consenting lenders must be paid in full.  The outstanding revolving loans under the revolving credit facility held by consenting lenders must be paid in full on June 8, 2018.  We are required to repay term loans in quarterly principal installments aggregating 2.500% of the original aggregate principal amount of the term loans ($5.0 million) during each of the remaining quarters prior to maturity on June 8, 2018, at which time the entire unpaid principal balance of the term loans held by consenting lenders is due and payable.
 
The impact of the Eighth Amendment on the maturity of our debt is reflected in our balance sheet.  As of December 31, 2016, availability under the revolving credit facility totaled $103.8 million. Based upon the pro-forma calculations of compliance with the restrictive covenants under our credit agreement, we anticipate the ability to borrow under the revolving credit facility up to a maximum of $125.0 million through June 8, 2017 and up to a maximum of $79.7 million for the period beginning on June 9, 2017 and ending on June 8, 2018.

The Fifth Amended Credit Agreement contains financial covenants that require us to maintain, as defined, specified ratios or levels of (1) total funded debt to EBITDA and (2) fixed charge coverage. The Fifth Amended Credit Agreement contains various other affirmative and negative covenants that are typical for financings of this type.  Among other things, the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement limits repurchases of our common stock and the amount of dividends that we can pay to holders of our common stock.

1.50% Cash Convertible Senior Notes Due 2018

On July 16, 2013, we completed the issuance of $150.0 million aggregate principal amount of cash convertible senior notes due 2018 (the "Cash Convertible Notes"), which bear interest at a rate of 1.50% per year, payable semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2014. The Cash Convertible Notes will mature on July 1, 2018, unless earlier repurchased or converted into cash in accordance with their terms prior to such date. At the option of the holders, the Cash Convertible Notes are convertible into cash based on the conversion rate set forth below only upon occurrence of certain triggering events as defined in the Indenture dated as of July 8, 2013 by and between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, none of which had occurred as of December 31, 2016. Accordingly, we have classified the Cash Convertible Notes as long-term debt at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015. The Cash Convertible Notes are not convertible into our common stock or any other securities under any circumstances. The initial cash conversion rate is approximately 51.38 shares of our common stock per $1,000 principal amount of Cash Convertible Notes (equivalent to an initial conversion price of approximately $19.46 per share of common stock). The Cash Convertible Notes are our senior unsecured obligations and rank senior in right of payment to any of our indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Cash Convertible Notes. As a result of this transaction, we recognized deferred loan costs
 
50
of approximately $3.9 million, which are being amortized over the term of the Cash Convertible Notes using the effective interest method.
 
Although the Cash Convertible Notes are not currently convertible, the Cash Convertible Notes will become convertible into cash during any calendar quarter (and only during such calendar quarter) if the last reported sale price of our common stock for at least 20 trading days (whether or not consecutive) during a period of 30 consecutive trading days ending on the last trading day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to approximately $25.30 per share.  Even if holders do not elect to convert their Cash Convertible Notes, we would be required under applicable accounting rules to reclassify the outstanding principal of the Cash Convertible Notes that are convertible as a current rather than long-term liability.

The cash conversion feature of the Cash Convertible Notes (the "Cash Conversion Derivative") requires bifurcation from the Cash Convertible Notes in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging" ("ASC Topic 815"), and is recorded in other long-term liabilities as a derivative liability and carried at fair value. The fair value of the Cash Conversion Derivative at the time of issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes was $36.8 million, which was recorded as a debt discount for purposes of accounting for the debt component of the Cash Convertible Notes. The debt discount is being amortized over the term of the Cash Convertible Notes using the effective interest method. For the year ended December 31, 2016, we recorded $7.6 million of interest expense related to the amortization of the debt discount based upon an effective interest rate of 5.7%. The net carrying amount of the Cash Convertible Notes at December 31, 2016 and December 31, 2015 was $137.9 million and $130.3 million, respectively, net of the unamortized discount of $12.1 million and $19.7 million, respectively.
 
In connection with the issuance of the Cash Convertible Notes, we entered into privately negotiated convertible note hedge transactions (the "Cash Convertible Notes Hedges"), which are cash-settled and are intended to reduce our exposure to potential cash payments that we would be required to make if holders elect to convert the Cash Convertible Notes at a time when our stock price exceeds the conversion price. The initial cost of the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges was $36.8 million. The Cash Convertible Notes Hedges are recorded in other assets as a derivative asset under ASC Topic 815 and are carried at fair value.  See Note 10 for additional information regarding the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative and their fair values as of December 31, 2016.

In July 2013, we also sold separate privately negotiated warrants (the "Warrants") initially relating, in the aggregate, to a notional number of shares of our common stock underlying the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges. The Warrants have an initial strike price of approximately $25.95 per share, which effectively increases the conversion price of the Cash Convertible Notes to a 60% premium to our stock price on July 1, 2013. The Warrants will be net share settled by issuing a number of shares of our common stock per Warrant corresponding to the excess of the market price per share of our common stock (as measured on each warrant exercise date under the terms of the Warrants) over the applicable strike price of the Warrants. The Warrants meet the definition of derivatives under the guidance in ASC Topic 815; however, because these instruments have been determined to be indexed to our own stock and meet the criteria for equity classification under ASC Topic 815, the Warrants have been accounted for as an adjustment to our additional paid-in-capital.

If the market value per share of our common stock exceeds the strike price of the Warrants, the Warrants will have a dilutive effect on net income per share, and the "treasury stock" method will be used in calculating the dilutive effect on earnings per share.

CareFirst Convertible Note

On October 1, 2013, we entered into an Investment Agreement (the "Investment Agreement") with CareFirst Holdings, LLC ("CareFirst"), which was in addition to certain commercial agreements between us and CareFirst relating to, among other things, disease management and care coordination services (the "Commercial Agreements"). Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, we issued to CareFirst a convertible subordinated promissory note in the aggregate original principal amount of $20 million (the "CareFirst Convertible Note") for a purchase price of $20 million. The CareFirst Convertible Note bore interest at a rate of 4.75% per year, payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each calendar year, beginning on December 31, 2013. The CareFirst Convertible Note could be prepaid only under limited circumstances and upon the terms and conditions specified therein. If the CareFirst Convertible Note had not been fully converted or redeemed in accordance with its terms, it would have matured on October 1, 2019.  The CareFirst Convertible Note was subordinate in right of payment to the prior payment in full of (a) all of our indebtedness under the Fifth
 
51
Amended Credit Agreement (as defined below) and (b) any other of our senior debt, which currently includes only the Cash Convertible Notes.
 
The CareFirst Convertible Note was convertible into shares of our common stock at the conversion rate determined by dividing (a) the sum of the portion of the principal to be converted and accrued and unpaid interest with respect to such principal by (b) the conversion price equal to $22.41 per share of our common stock.  The conversion price was subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, recapitalizations, reorganizations, reclassifications and similar events. In October 2016, CareFirst elected to convert the full amount of the CareFirst Convertible Note into 892,458 shares of our common stock with a conversion price equal to $22.41 per share.
 
CareFirst had an opportunity to earn warrants to purchase shares of our common stock ("CareFirst Warrants") based on achievement of certain quarterly thresholds (the "Revenue Thresholds") for revenue derived from both the Commercial Agreements and from new business to us from third parties as a result of an introduction or referral to us by CareFirst (collectively, the "Quarterly Revenue").  If the Quarterly Revenue was greater than or equal to the applicable Revenue Threshold for any quarter ending on or prior to September 30, 2017, then we would issue to CareFirst a certain number of warrants exercisable for the number of shares of our common stock ("CareFirst Warrant Shares") determined in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement unless (i) CareFirst elected to receive a cash payment in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement or (ii) there was a change of control. The aggregate number of CareFirst Warrant Shares in any single 12-month period beginning on October 1, 2013 could not exceed 400,000, and the aggregate number of CareFirst Warrant Shares issuable pursuant to the Investment Agreement could not exceed 1,600,000.

Also on October 1, 2013, in connection with the execution of the Investment Agreement, we entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the "Registration Rights Agreement") with CareFirst, pursuant to which we agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause any registration statement covering an underwritten offering of our common stock for our own account or for the account of any holder of our common stock (other than a registration statement on Form S-4 or Form S-8 or any successor thereto) to include those registrable common shares that any holder of such registrable common shares has requested to be registered. 

Effective July 31, 2016, in connection with the consummation of the sale of the TPHS business (as discussed in Note 3), the Investment Agreement was terminated, and all of the Commercial Agreements between the Company and CareFirst relating to the TPHS business were transferred to an entity that, effective at the Closing, became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Sharecare, the buyer of the TPHS business.  As a result, CareFirst no longer has the opportunity to earn the CareFirst Warrants in respect of the periods following the Closing. The Convertible Note, the Registration Rights Agreement and the CareFirst Warrants previously issued to CareFirst were not affected by the termination of the Investment Agreement. As of July 31, 2016, we had issued 630,586 CareFirst Warrants at a weighted average exercise price of $15.61, 39,903 of which were issued in 2016. In September 2016, CareFirst exercised its right to convert 590,683 CareFirst Warrants for a total of 218,162 shares of our common stock in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement. In December 2016, CareFirst exercised its right to convert the remaining 39,903 CareFirst Warrants for a total of 18,104 shares of our common stock in accordance with the terms of the Investment Agreement.

Commitments and Contingencies

Summary

We are subject to contractual disputes, claims and legal proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business . While we are unable to estimate a range of potential losses , we do not believe that any of the legal proceedings pending against us as of the date of this report, some of which are expected to be covered by insurance policies, will have a material adverse effect on our financial statements . As these matters are subject to inherent uncertainties , our view of these matters may change in the future.

Contractual Commitments

In October 2012, we entered into a joint venture agreement with Gallup (the "Gallup Joint Venture") that required us to make payments over a five year period beginning January 2013. Pursuant to Sharecare's acquisition of the TPHS business, our ownership interest in the Gallup Joint Venture was transferred to Sharecare. We agreed with Sharecare to be responsible for two-thirds of the remaining payment obligations in respect of the purchase price to be paid in connection with Sharecare's acquisition of additional membership interest in the joint venture. This obligation is currently expected to result in aggregate payments by us of approximately $4.2 million, payable in five equal quarterly installments that began in the fourth quarter of the 2016 calendar year and end in the fourth quarter of 2017. As of December 31, 2016, this obligation totaled $3.3 million and was included in accrued liabilities. The financial impact of the strategic relationship with Gallup and the Gallup Joint Venture are reflected in discontinued operations for all periods presented as each of these are a part of the TPHS business that we sold.

In May 2011, we entered into a ten-year applications and technology services outsourcing agreement with HP that contained minimum fee requirements. As a result of the sale of the TPHS business, the minimum fee requirements under our technology services outsourcing agreement with HP were eliminated.

Fair Value Measurements

We account for certain assets and liabilities at fair value . Fair value is defined as the price that would be received upon sale of an asset or paid upon transfer of a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date, assuming the transaction occurs in the principal or most advantageous market for that asset or liability.

Fair Value Hierarchy

The hierarchy below lists three levels of fair value based on the extent to which inputs used in measuring fair value are observable in the market . We categorize each of our fair value measurements in one of these three levels based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety . These levels are:

Level 1:   Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2:
Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model - based valuation techniques in which all significant assumptions are observable in the market or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities; and

Level 3:   Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and typically reflect management's estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis

Based on our estimate of fair value prior to the disposition of the TPHS business, we determined in 2015 that the present value of our remaining contractual cash obligations in the Gallup Joint Venture exceeded the estimated fair value, resulting in the recognition of a liability associated with the forward option to acquire additional membership interest (the "Gallup Derivative"). Prior to July 31, 2016 and the sale of the TPHS business, the Gallup
 
53
Derivative was recorded as a derivative liability in accordance with FASB ASC Topic 815 and was carried at fair value.  Upon the sale of the TPHS business, we remain obligated to Sharecare for two-thirds of the remaining payment obligations in respect of the purchase price to be paid in connection with Sharecare's acquisition of additional membership interest in the Gallup Joint Venture as discussed in Note 8 above.  These payment obligations are recorded as a liability at December 31, 2016 but not as a derivative; since the Gallup Joint Venture was transferred to Sharecare, the Gallup Derivative was written off to discontinued operations.

Further , we measure certain assets at fair value on a nonrecurring basis in the fourth quarter of the year , including the following:

•
reporting units measured at fair value as part of a goodwill impairment test; and

•
indefinite-lived intangible assets measured at fair value for impairment assessment.

Each of these assets above is classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy.

During the fourth quarter of 2016 , we reviewed goodwill for impairment at the reporting unit level (operating segment or one level below an operating segment). Following the sale of the TPHS business effective July 31, 2016, a single reporting unit remains.  The fair value of a reporting unit is the price that would be received to sell the unit as a whole in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date . We elected to perform a qualitative assessment to determine whether it was more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit was less than its carrying value . Based on our qualitative assessment, we determined that the carrying value of goodwill was not impaired.

Also during the fourth quarter of 2016, we estimated the fair value of our indefinite-lived intangible asset, a tradename, using a present value technique, which required management's estimate of future revenues attributable to this tradename, estimation of the long-term growth rate and royalty rate for this revenue, and determination of our weighted average cost of capital. Changes in these estimates and assumptions could materially affect the estimate of fair value for the tradename. We determined that the carrying value of the tradename was not impaired based upon the impairment review.

(1) This column reflects the impact of netting derivative assets and liabilities by counterparty when a legally enforceable master netting agreement exists.

The fair values of forward foreign currency exchange contracts were valued using broker quotations of similar assets or liabilities in active markets . The fair values of interest rate swap agreements were primarily determined based on the present value of future cash flows using internal models and third - party pricing services with observable inputs, including interest rates, yield curves and applicable credit spreads. The fair values of the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative are measured using Level 3 inputs because these instruments are not actively traded. The Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative are valued using an option pricing model that uses observable and unobservable market data for inputs, such as expected time to maturity of the derivative instruments , the risk-free interest rate , the expected volatility of our common stock and other factors. The Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative were designed such that changes in their fair values would offset one another , with minimal impact to the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Therefore , the sensitivity of changes in the unobservable inputs to the option pricing model for such instruments is mitigated.

The gains and losses included in earnings noted above represent the change in the fair value of these financial instruments and are recorded each period in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The gains and losses on the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and Cash Conversion Derivative are recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses.

Fair Value of Other Financial Instruments

In addition to the interest rate swap agreements, the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and the Cash Conversion Derivative , the estimated fair values of which are disclosed above , the estimated fair value of each class of financial instruments at December 31, 2 0 16 was as follows:

Cash and cash equivalents – The carrying amount of $1.6 million approximates fair value because of the short maturity of those instruments (less than three months).

Long-term debt – The estimated fair value of outstanding borrowings under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement, which includes a revolving credit facility and a term loan facility (see Note 7), and the Cash Convertible Notes are determined based on the fair value hierarchy as discussed above . The revolving credit facility and the term loan facility are not actively traded and therefore are classified as Level 2 valuations based on the market for similar instruments. The estimated fair value is based on the average of the prices set by the issuing bank given current market conditions and is not necessarily indicative of the amount we could realize in a current market exchange. The estimated fair value and carrying amount of outstanding borrowings under the Fifth Amended Credit Agreement at December 31 , 2 0 16 are $73.5 million and $73.5 million , respectively.

The Cash Convertible Notes are actively traded and therefore are classified as Level 1 valuations. The estimated fair value at December 31, 2016 was $187.7 million, which is based on the most recent trading price of the Cash Convertible Notes as of December 31, 2016, and the par value was $150.0 million. The carrying amount of the Cash Convertible Notes at December 31, 2016 was $137.9 million, which is net of the debt discount discussed in Note 7.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

We use derivative instruments to manage risks related to interest (through December 30, 2016), the Cash
 
55
Convertible Notes, and, prior to the sale of the TPHS business, foreign currencies and the fair value of the Gallup Derivative. We account for derivatives in accordance with ASC Topic 815, which establishes accounting and reporting standards requiring that certain derivative instruments be recorded on the balance sheet as either an asset or liability measured at fair value. Additionally, changes in the derivative's fair value will be recognized currently in earnings unless specific hedge accounting criteria are met. As permitted under our master netting arrangements, the fair value amounts of our prior interest rate swaps and foreign currency options and/or forward contracts are presented on a net basis by counterparty in the consolidated balance sheets.

Derivative Instruments Designated as Hedging Instruments

Cash Flow Hedges

Derivative instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded at estimated fair value in the consolidated balance sheets , with the effective portion of the gains and losses being reported in accumulated other comprehensive income or loss ("accumulated OCI") . Cash flow hedges for all periods presented consist solely of interest rate swap agreements, which effectively modified our exposure to interest rate risk by converting a portion of our floating rate debt to fixed rate obligations , thus reducing the impact of interest rate changes on future interest expense . Under these agreements , we received a variable rate of interest based on LIBOR (as defined in Note 7) , and we paid a fixed rate of interest with an interest rate of 1.48 0 % plus a spread (see Note 7) . We maintained an interest rate swap agreement that had a termination date of December 30, 2016, and as of December 31, 2016, we maintained no other interest rate swap agreements . Gains and losses on interest rate swap agreements were reclassified to interest expense in the same period during which the hedged transaction affected earnings or the period in which all or a portion of the hedge became ineffective .

The following table shows the effect of our cash flow hedges on the consolidated balance sheets during the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2 0 15:

Gains and losses representing either hedge ineffectiveness or hedge components excluded from the assessment of effectiveness are recognized in current earnings. During the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2 0 15, there were no gains or losses on cash flow hedges recognized in our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) resulting from hedge ineffectiveness.

Derivative Instruments Not Designated as Hedging Instruments

Our Cash Conversion Derivative, Cash Convertible Notes Hedges and, prior to July 31, 2016, Gallup Derivative and foreign currency options and/or forward contracts, do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment under U.S . GAAP and are measured at fair value, with gains and losses recognized immediately in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). Other than the Gallup Derivative described in Note 9 , these derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments did not have a material impact on our consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 .

The Cash Conversion Derivative is accounted for as a derivative liability and carried at fair value . In order to offset the risk associated with the Cash Conversion Derivative, we entered into Cash Convertible Notes Hedges which are cash-settled and are intended to reduce our exposure to potential cash payments that we would be required to make if holders elect to convert the Cash Convertible Notes at a time when our stock price exceeds the conversion price. The Cash Convertible Notes Hedges are accounted for as a derivative asset and carried at fair value.

Prior to July 31, 2016 and the sale of the TPHS business, the Gallup Derivative was accounted for as a derivative liability and carried at fair value.

56
The gains and losses resulting from a change in fair values of the Cash Conversion Derivative and the Cash Convertible Notes Hedges are reported in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss). The   settlement on the Gallup Derivative has been recorded as a part of discontinued operations.

Prior to the sale of the TPHS business, we also entered into foreign currency options and/or forward contracts in order to minimize our earnings exposure to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates.  Our foreign currency exchange contracts required current period mark-to-market accounting, with any change in fair value being recorded each period in the consolidated statements of comprehensive income (loss) in selling, general and administrative expenses. We do not execute transactions or hold derivative financial instruments for trading or other purposes.

Other Long-Term Liabilities

Other long-term liabilities consist primarily of the Cash Conversion Derivative (see Notes 9 and 10) , accrued severance and restructuring liabilities, deferred rent (see Note 12), and a deferred compensation plan .

57
We have a non-qualified deferred compensation plan under which certain employees may defer a portion of their salaries and receive a Company matching contribution plus a discretionary contribution based on the Company's performance against targets . Company contributions vest equally over four years . We do not fund the plan and carry it as an unsecured obligation . Participants in the plan elect payout dates for their account balances , which can be no earlier than four years from the beginning of the plan year.

As of December 31, 2 0 16 and 2 0 15, other long-term liabilities included vested amounts under the non-qualified deferred compensation plan of $1.6 million and $4.4 million, respectively, net of the current portions of $5.9 million and $4.1 million, respectively. For the next five years ending December 31 , 2021 we must make estimated plan payments of $5.9 million , $0.1 million , $37,000, $0.2 million , and $10,000, respectively.

12.
Leases

We maintain operating lease agreements principally for our office spaces. We lease approximately 264, 000 square feet of office space for our corporate headquarters in Franklin , Tennessee, approximately 221,000 square feet of which is subleased.  This lease commenced in March 2 00 8 and expires in February 2023.  We also lease approximately 92,000 square feet of office space in Chandler, Arizona, and approximately 13,000 square feet of office space in Sterling, Virginia .   The Chandler, Arizona lease began in April 2009 and expires in April 2020.     

Our corporate office lease agreement in Tennessee contains escalation clauses and provides for two renewal options of five years each at then prevailing market rates . The base rent for the initial 15-year term ranges from $4.3 million to $6.6 million per year over the term of the lease . The landlord provided a tenant improvement allowance equal to approximately $10.7 million . We record leasehold improvement incentives as deferred rent and amortize them as reductions to rent expense over the lease term .

Most of our operating leases include escalation clauses , some of which are fixed amounts, and some of which reflect changes in price indices.  We recognize rent expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.  Certain operating leases contain renewal options to extend the lease for additional periods. For the years ended December 31 , 2016, 2015, and 2 0 14, rent expense under lease agreements was approximately $4.2 million , $3.7 million , and $2.0 million , respectively . Our capital lease obligations are included in long-term debt and the current portion of long - term debt.

Share-Based Compensation


We have several stockholder-approved stock incentive plans for our employees and directors.  During the year ended December 31, 2016, we had four types of share-based awards outstanding under these plans: stock options, restricted stock units, restricted stock and market stock units. We believe that our share-based awards align the interests of our employees and directors with those of our stockholders.

58
We grant options under these plans at market value on the date of grant . The options generally vest over four years based on service conditions and expire ten years from the date of grant. Restricted stock units and restricted stock awards generally vest over three or four years. Market stock units granted during the years ended December 31 , 2016 and December 31, 2015 have a multi-year performance period ending in 2019 and 2018, respectively, and will vest at the end of the applicable three-year performance period based on total shareholder return.

We recognize share-based compensation expense for options, restricted stock units, and restricted stock awards on a straight-line basis over the vesting period . We recognize share-based compensation expense for the market stock units if the requisite service period is rendered , even if the market condition is never satisfied . All awards generally provide for accelerated vesting upon a change in control or normal or early retirement (as defined in the applicable stock incentive plan) . At December 31 , 2 0 16 , we had reserved approximately 1.1 million shares for future equity grants under our stock incentive plan.

Following are certain amounts recognized in the consolidated statements of operations for share-based compensation arrangements for the years ended December 31, 2 0 16, 2015 and 2014. We did not capitalize any share - based compensation costs during these periods.

Includes the acceleration of vesting in May 2015 of all unexercisable stock options and unvested time-based restricted stock units held by our former president and chief executive officer at the time of the termination of his employment.
 
As of December 31 , 2016 , there was $11.1 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to nonvested share-based compensation arrangements granted under the stock incentive plans. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years.

In connection with the sale of the TPHS business, we modified approximately 92,000 options, 396,000 restricted stock units, and 75,000 market stock units by accelerating the vesting dates to July 31, 2016 (the date on which the sale of the TPHS business was consummated) for approximately 100 employees of the TPHS business.  This resulted in share-based compensation expense of $7.4 million, all of which is included in discontinued operations .

Stock Options

We use a lattice-based binomial option valuation model ("lattice binomial model") to estimate the fair values of stock options . We base expected volatility on historical volatility due to the low volume of traded options on our stock . The expected term of options granted is derived from the output of the lattice binomial model and represents the period of time that options granted are expected to be outstanding.  We used historical data to estimate expected option exercise and post-vesting employment termination behavior within the lattice binomial model. No stock options were granted during the years ended December 31 , 2016 or 2015.

The following table sets forth the weighted average grant-date fair values of options and the weighted

average assumptions we used to develop the fair value estimates under each of the option valuation models for the year ended December 31, 2014:

The total intrinsic value, which represents the difference between the market price of the underlying common stock and the option's exercise price, of options exercised during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $10.2 million, $5.3 million, and $1.1 million, respectively.

Cash received from option exercises under all share-based payment arrangements during 2016 was $10.0 million. No actual tax benefit was realized during 2016 for the tax deductions from option exercises. We issue new shares of common stock upon exercise of stock options or vesting of restricted stock units and market stock units.

Nonvested Shares

The fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units is determined based on the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the grant date.  The weighted average grant-date fair value of restricted stock and restricted stock units granted during the years ended December 31, 2016, 2015 and 2014 was $12.37, $11.97, and $16.72, respectively. The fair value of market stock units is determined based on the closing bid price of the Company's common stock on the grant date , except that the Monte Carlo simulation valuation model is used to determine the fair value of market stock units with a market condition . The weighted average grant-date fair value of all market stock units granted during the years ended December 31 , 2016 and 2015 was $10.67 and $6.53, respectively. No market stock units were granted during 2014.  The weighted average grant-date fair value of performance-based stock units granted during the year ended December 31 , 2014 was $14.77. No performance-based stock units were granted during 2015 or 2016, and there are no performance-based stock units outstanding as of December 31, 2016.

The two tables below set forth a summary of our nonvested shares as of December 31 , 2 0 16 as well as activity during the year then ended . The total grant-date fair value of shares vested during the years ended December 31, 2016 , 2015 and 2014 was $13.9 million , $5.2 million, and $2.5 million , respectively .

Share Repurchases

In accordance with the terms of a Separation and Release Agreement entered into with our former President and Chief Executive Officer, Ben R . Leedle , Jr., whose employment was terminated on May 15 , 2015 (the "Separation Date") , Mr. Leedle elected to net exercise (net of the applicable exercise price and tax withholding) on the Separation Date certain performance awards granted to Mr. Leedle in the form of options to purchase 434,436 shares of common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $9.96 per share. The Company repurchased from Mr. Leedle 106,4 0 8 shares of common stock resulting from this net exercise at $17.23 per share, which was the per share purchase price equal to the closing price of the common stock on the Separation Date as reported on The NASDAQ Global Select Market.

Restructuring and Related Charges

In the third quarter of 2015, we began developing our reorganization and cost rationalization plan (the "2015 Restructuring Plan") that the Company committed to in October 2015, which was intended to improve efficiency and deliver greater value to our customers and stakeholders. Completion of the 2015 Restructuring Plan occurred with the completion of the sale of the TPHS business. We incurred a total of approximately $24 million in restructuring charges related to the 2015 Restructuring Plan, substantially all of which resulted in cash expenditures.
 
The following table shows the costs incurred for the years ended December 31, 2016 and 2015 directly related to our 2015 Restructuring Plan and other restructuring costs:

(1) Consulting and other costs primarily consist of third-party consulting charges incurred in connection with the 2015 Restructuring Plan. Consulting and other costs also include approximately $0.2 million and $0.4 million of lease termination costs in 2016 and 2015, respectively.
 
(2) Non-cash charges consist primarily of share-based compensation costs as well as asset retirements.  

(3) Adjustments resulted primarily from actual employee tax and benefit amounts differing from previous estimates .  

 

In the third quarter of 2016, we began the reorganization of our corporate support infrastructure (the "2016 Restructuring Plan"), which is intended to deliver greater value to our customers and stakeholders. We expect to incur a total of approximately $6.0 million in restructuring charges related to the 2016 Restructuring Plan, $4.9 million of which was incurred by the end of the fourth quarter of 2016, with the remainder expected to be incurred in the first quarter of 2017 and to consist of severance and other employee-related costs.

Employee Benefits

We have a 401(k) Retirement Savings Plan (the "4 0 1(k) Plan") available to substantially all of our employees.  Employees can contribute up to a certain percentage of their base compensation as defined in the 401(k) Plan. The Company matching contributions are subject to vesting requirements . Company contributions under the 401(k) Plan totaled $2.2 million , $3.3 million and $3.3 million for the years ended December 31, 2 0 16, 2015 and 2014, respectively.

19.
Segment Disclosures and Concentrations of Risk

Excluding the TPHS business, during 2 0 16, we had one operating and reportable segment , Network Solutions. Therefore, all required segment information can be found in the Consolidated Financial Statements. Long - lived assets and revenue from external customers attributable to our operations in the United States accounted for 100% of our consolidated long-lived assets and revenues as of and for the years ended December 31 , 2016 and December 31, 2015.

During 2016 , we had two customers that each accounted for 10% or more of our revenues from continuing operations and individually comprised approximately 20.4% and 15.2% of our revenues for 2016. No other customer accounted for 1 0 % or more of our revenues in 2016. In addition, at December 31, 2016, one customer accounted for approximately 28% of our accounts receivable, net.

During 2 0 15 , we had three customers that each accounted for 10% or more of our revenues and individually comprised approximately 23%, 13%, and 10% of our revenues from continuing operations for 2015. No other customer accounted for 1 0 % or more of our revenues from continuing operations in 2015.

We calculated earnings per share for each of the quarters based on the weighted average number of shares and dilutive securities outstanding for each period . Accordingly , the sum of the quarters may not necessarily be equal to the full year income per share.

(2)
Figures may not add due to rounding.

(3)
Net income from continuing operations for the fourth quarter of 2016 includes the impact of a $2.2 million out of period adjustment to decrease depreciation expense included in continuing operations (with a corresponding increase to depreciation expense included in discontinued operations) related to the correction of our previous allocation of 2016 depreciation expense between continuing and discontinued operations based on having completed our asset separation analysis.  The previous interim periods in 2016 were not materially misstated, nor is the correction material to the interim results for the fourth quarter of 2016.

Item 9 .  Changes in and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial Disclosure

Item 9A . Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's principal executive officer and principal financial officer have reviewed and evaluated
 
65
the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) promulgated under the Exchange Act) as of December 31, 2016 . Based on that evaluation , the principal executive officer and principal financial officer have concluded that the Company's disclosure controls and procedures are effective.  They are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC's rules and forms and to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company's management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer , to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Management's Annual Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting

Management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting. Internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Because of its inherent limitations , internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements . Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions , or that the degree of compliance with the policies and procedures may deteriorate .

Management has performed an assessment of the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting  as of December 31, 2 0 16 based on criteria established in Internal Control — Integrated Framework (2 0 13) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (the "COSO framework"), and believes that the COSO framework is a suitable framework for such an evaluation.  Based on this assessment, management has concluded that the Company's internal control over financial reporting was effective as of December 31, 2 0 16.

PricewaterhouseCoopers, the independent registered public accounting firm that audited the Company's Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31 , 2016 , has issued an attestation report on the Company's internal control over financial reporting, which is included in this Report.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in the Company's internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended December 31 , 2016 that have materially affected , or are reasonably likely to materially affect , the Company's internal control over financial reporting.

HEALTHWAYS, INC.
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2014 STOCK INCENTIVE PLAN
RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT
(EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND OTHER SENIOR OFFICERS)

This RESTRICTED STOCK UNIT AWARD AGREEMENT (the " Agreement "), dated GRANT DATE , is by and between Healthways, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the " Company "), and PARTICIPANT NAME (the " Grantee "), under the Company's Amended and Restated 2014 Stock Incentive Plan (the " Plan ").  Terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Grantee's employment agreement with the Company (as may be amended from time to time, the " Employment Agreement "), or in the absence of an Employment Agreement or if not defined in the Employment Agreement, then the meanings given to them in the Plan.

Section 1.   Restricted Stock Unit Award .  The Grantee is hereby granted NUMBER OF UNITS restricted stock units (the " Restricted Stock Units ").  Each Restricted Stock Unit represents the right to receive one share of the Company's Common Stock, $.001 par value (the " Stock "), subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Plan.

Section 2.   Vesting of the Award .  Except as otherwise provided in Section 3 and Section 5 below, the Restricted Stock Units will vest at such times (the " Vesting Date ") and in the percentages set forth below, as long as the Grantee is serving as an employee of the Company on the Vesting Date.

Vesting Date
 
Award Percentage of Restricted Stock Units
One Year from Grant Date
 
 
100%
 
The Company shall issue one share of Stock to the Grantee in settlement of each vested Restricted Stock Unit (the " Distributed Shares ") at the time the Restricted Stock Unit vests pursuant to any provision of this Agreement. The Distributed Shares shall be represented by a certificate or by a book-entry.

Section 3.   Forfeiture on Termination of Employment .

3.1.   Termination by the Company for Cause .  If the Grantee's employment with the Company is involuntarily terminated for Cause, then all Restricted Stock Units that have not vested prior to the date of termination of Grantee's employment will be forfeited and the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to such Restricted Stock Units.

3.2.   Termination by the Company without Cause or by the Grantee for Good Reason .  If Grantee's employment with the Company (a) is involuntarily terminated by the Company for any reason other than termination for Cause, or (b) is terminated by the Grantee for Good Reason, then, subject to Grantee's execution of any release of claims provided for in the Employment Agreement, if applicable, the number of Restricted Stock Units that will vest on the Date of Termination shall be the excess of (x) the NUMBER OF SHARES multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months since the Grant Date during which Grantee was employed by the Company and the denominator of which is 36, over (y) the number of Restricted Stock Units that have previously vested in accordance with Section 2 , and the Company shall issue the Stock underlying such vested Restricted Stock Units to the Grantee on or about the Date of Termination.  For purposes of this Section 3.2 , the terms " Good Reason " and " Cause " shall have the meanings set forth in the Employment Agreement, or in the absence of an Employment Agreement, the term "Cause" shall have the meaning given to it in the Plan, and the term " Good Reason " shall mean (i) a material reduction in the Grantee's base salary (unless such reduction is part of an across the board reduction affecting all Company executives with a comparable title), or (ii) a requirement by the Company to relocate the Grantee to a location that is greater than 25 miles from the location of the office in which the Grantee performs his or her duties at the time of such relocation.

3.3.   Termination by Death or Disability .  If the Grantee's employment by the Company terminates by reason of death or Disability (as defined in the Plan), the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall immediately vest.

3.4       Termination by Reason of Retirement .  If the Grantee's employment with the Company terminates by reason of Retirement (as defined in the Plan), the Restricted Stock Units granted hereunder shall not be forfeited but shall be settled in Stock to the Grantee on the same schedule as provided in Section 2 (or otherwise) as if the Grantee had continued employment through each such Vesting Date (or such other vesting event pursuant to Section 3.3 or Section 5.2 ).

3.5.   Other Termination .  If the Grantee's employment by the Company is terminated for any reason other than as described in Sections 3.1 through 3.4 above, then all Restricted Stock Units that have not vested prior to the date of termination of Grantee's employment will be forfeited and the Grantee shall have no further rights with respect to such Restricted Stock Units.

Section 4.   Voting Rights and Dividends .  Prior to each Vesting Date, the Grantee shall be credited with cash dividend equivalents with respect to the Restricted Stock Units   at the time of any payment of dividends to stockholders on shares of Common Stock in accordance with the terms set forth in the Plan, and such dividend equivalents shall be paid (in cash, without interest) to the Grantee when the Restricted Stock Units to which they relate are settled in accordance with this Agreement.  The Grantee shall not have any voting rights with respect to the Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units prior to the vesting of the Restricted Stock Units and the issuance of the Stock as set forth in Section 2 .  A holder of Distributed Shares shall have full dividend and voting rights as a holder of Stock.

Section 5.   Restrictions on Transfer; Change in Control .

5.1.   General Restrictions .  The Restricted Stock Units shall not be transferable by the Grantee (or his or her personal representative or estate) other than by will or by the laws of descent and distribution.  The terms of this Agreement shall be binding on the executors, administrators, heirs and successors of the Grantee.

5.2.   Change in Control .  If Grantee's employment with the Company (or its successor company) (a) is involuntarily terminated within 12 months following a Change in Control for any reason other than termination for Cause, (b) is terminated by the Grantee for Good Reason within 12 months following a Change in Control, or (c) has terminated by reason of Retirement as of the date of the Change in Control, all restrictions imposed on the Restricted Stock Units shall thereupon lapse, the Restricted Stock Units will become free of all restrictions and become fully vested, and the Company (or its successor company) shall issue the Stock underlying the Restricted Stock Units to the Grantee on or about the Date of Termination; provided , however , that if in connection with a Change in Control, the acquiring corporation (or other successor to the Company in the Change in Control) does not assume the Restricted Share Units, then the Restricted Share Units shall vest and be settled in Stock issued to the Grantee immediately prior to the Change in Control. For purposes of this Section 5.2 , the terms " Good Reason " and " Cause " shall have the meanings set forth in Section 3.2 .

Section 6.   Restrictive Agreement .  As a condition to the receipt of any Distributed Shares, the Grantee (or his or her legal representative or estate or any third party transferee), if the Company so requests, will execute an agreement in form satisfactory to the Company in which the Grantee or such other recipient of the shares represents that he or she is purchasing the shares for investment purposes, and not with a view to resale or distribution.

Section 7.   Restricted Stock Units Award Subject to Recoupment Policy . The award of Restricted Stock Units is subject to the Healthways, Inc. Compensation Recoupment Policy (the " Policy ").  The award of Restricted Stock Units, or any amount traceable to the award of Restricted Stock Units, shall be subject to the recoupment obligations described in the Policy.

Section 8.   Adjustment .  In the event of any merger, reorganization, consolidation, recapitalization, extraordinary cash dividend, stock dividend, stock split or other change in corporate structure affecting the Stock, the number of Restricted Stock Units subject to this Agreement shall be equitably and proportionately adjusted by the Committee in accordance with the Plan without duplication of Section 4 .

Section 9.   Tax Withholding .  The Company shall have the right to require the Grantee to remit to the Company an amount necessary to satisfy any federal, state and local withholding tax requirements attributable to the vesting and payment of the Restricted Stock Units prior to the delivery of the Distributed Shares, or may withhold from the Distributed Shares an amount of Stock having a Fair Market Value equal to such federal, state or local taxes as shall be required to be withheld pursuant to any applicable law or regulation.

Section 10.   Plan .  This Agreement is made under and subject to the provisions of the Plan, and all of the provisions of the Plan that do not conflict with this Agreement are also provisions of this Agreement.  If there is a difference or conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of the Plan, the provisions of this Agreement will govern.  By signing this Agreement, the Grantee confirms that he or she has received a copy of the Plan.

Section 11.   Confidentiality, Non-Solicitation and Non-Compete.   In the event Grantee breaches any of the confidentiality, non-solicitation or non-compete covenants set forth in the Employment Agreement, if applicable, the Restricted Stock Units shall immediately thereupon expire and be forfeited, and the Company shall be entitled to seek other appropriate remedies it may have available in connection with such breach.

Section 12.   Miscellaneous .

12.1.   Entire Agreement .  This Agreement and the Plan contain the entire understanding and agreement between the Company and the Grantee concerning the Restricted Stock Units granted hereby, and supersede any prior or contemporaneous negotiations and understandings.  The Company and the Grantee have made no promises, agreements, conditions, or understandings relating to the Restricted Stock Units, either orally or in writing, that are not included in this Agreement or the Plan.

12.2.   Employment .  By establishing the Plan, granting awards under the Plan, and entering into this Agreement, the Company does not give the Grantee any right to continue to be employed by the Company or to be entitled to any remuneration or benefits not set forth in this Agreement or the Plan.

12.3.   Captions .  The captions and section numbers appearing in this Agreement are inserted only as a matter of convenience.  They do not define, limit, construe, or describe the scope or intent of the provisions of this Agreement.

12.4.   Counterparts .  This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which when signed by the Company and the Grantee will be deemed an original and all of which together will be deemed the same Agreement.

12.5.   Notice .  All notices required to be given under this Agreement shall be deemed to be received if delivered or mailed as provided for herein, to the parties at the following addresses, or to such other address as either party may provide in writing from time to time.

To the Company:                                               Healthways, Inc.

Franklin, Tennessee 37067

To the Grantee:

12.6.   Amendment .  Subject to the restrictions contained in the Plan, the Committee may amend the terms of this Agreement, prospectively or retroactively, but, subject to Section 8 above, no such amendment shall impair the rights of the Grantee hereunder without the Grantee's consent.

12.7.   Governing Law .  This Agreement shall be governed and construed exclusively in accordance with the law of the State of Delaware applicable to agreements to be performed in the State of Delaware to the extent it may apply.

12.8.   Validity; Severability .  If, for any reason, any provision hereof shall be determined to be invalid or unenforceable, the validity and effect of the other provisions hereof shall not be affected thereby.  Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement will be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any applicable law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability will not affect any other provision or any other jurisdiction, but this Agreement will be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein.  If any court determines that any provision of this Agreement is unenforceable but has the power to reduce the scope or duration of such provision, as the case may be, such provision, in its reduced form, shall then be enforceable.

12.9.   Interpretation; Resolution of Disputes; Section 409A .

(a)   It is expressly understood that the Committee is authorized to administer, construe and make all determinations necessary or appropriate to the administration of the Plan and this Agreement, all of which shall be binding upon the Grantee.  Any dispute or disagreement which may arise under, or as a result of, or in any way related to, the interpretation, construction or application of this Agreement shall be determined by the Board.  Any determination made hereunder shall be final, binding and conclusive on the Grantee and the Company for all purposes.

(b)   Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the settlement of the Restricted Stock Units (including any dividend equivalent rights) to be made to the Grantee pursuant to this Agreement is intended to qualify as a "short-term deferral" pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations and this Agreement shall be interpreted consistently therewith.  However, under certain circumstances, settlement of the Restricted Stock Units or any dividend equivalent rights may not so qualify, and in that case, the Committee shall administer the grant and settlement of such Restricted Stock Units and any dividend equivalent rights in strict compliance with Section 409A of the Code.  Further, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at the time of a Participant's termination of employment with the Company, the Participant is a "specified employee" as defined in Section 409A of the Code, and the deferral of the commencement of any payments or benefits otherwise payable hereunder as a result of such termination of service is necessary in order to prevent the imposition of any accelerated or additional tax under Section 409A of the Code, then the Company will defer the commencement of the payment of any such payments or benefits hereunder (without any reduction in such payments or benefits ultimately paid or provided to the Participant) to the minimum extent necessary to satisfy Section 409A of the Code until the date that is six months and one day following the Participant's termination of employment with the Company (or the earliest date as is permitted under Section 409A of the Code), if such payment or benefit is payable upon a termination of employment.  Each payment of Restricted Stock Units (and related dividend equivalent rights) constitutes a "separate payment" for purposes of Section 409A of the Code.

12.10.   Successors in Interest .  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon any successor to the Company.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of the Grantee's legal representative and permitted assignees.  All obligations imposed upon the Grantee and all rights granted to the Company under this Agreement shall be binding upon the Grantee's heirs, executors, administrators, successors and assignees.
